I have ha my black moor goldfish for a few months now, and just a few days ago I added a bristlenose pleco, as the algae was building up and starting to annoy me, no matter how many water changes I made. The bristlenose is fast and moves around the sides of the tank extremely quickly, or at least faster then what I thought a pleco would be like. Anyway, the two seemed to get along, other than the water becoming filthy from all the waste the pleco was making, but when I got home, my moor's top fin was torn in multiple places and her tail had fraying on it too. I have been keeping a close eye on them all day and nothing out of the ordinary has happened. I am scared that the pleco, if aggressive, could kill my moor, which is my prized fish, and i love her dearly. The pleco a little bigger than my moor so it frightens me to keep them together, but the only other option is to put my moor into a bowl temporarily. I am working on getting products to heal the fin, but dont want the problem to persist. Any idea what I should do from here? Could the pleco really be aggressive, or did my moor do that to herself against a rock? Thank you
