I bought a clown pleco awhile ago to add to my 2 angels, 2 gouramis, and 2 cory cats. I bought it to eat algae but then soon realized they don't really eat much algae and all it does is hide in the castle I have in the tank.
But recently one of my gouramis have disappeared. The gourami was always in the castle too. Then today i saw the angel sticking half way out of the castle, looking kind of stuck with the pleco next to it, so i moved the castle and saw that half of its fin was missing!
Has anyone else ever had any problems with plecos eating other live fish? I don't want to keep it in my tank if its going to kill all of the fish.
