I have a Pleco in my 10g tank and I'm gonna pick up some guppies tommorow and I'm wondering if the Pleco would attack my guppies
You need to get that Pleco out of there! They need huuuuge tanks!
I wouldn't keep a Pleco in a 10 gallon tank. Only in rare cases like starvation do plecos attack other fish, but guppies are probably too small a target anyway
They used to suck the blood out of my dad's oscars
Lol what? Plecos aren't vampires. They can suck on the slime coat but they don't suck blood. There are a couple of small pleco species that can go in a 10. Clown plecos stay small and are common. They'd do fine in a 10 IMO.
He said it's a Pleco I'm assuming a common one, the chances are more likely at least. The incident with my dads Pleco happened in the 60's... No way he was supposed to remember it was the slime coat and not the actual blood lol
Haha fair enough and I agree it probably is a common. That's what most beginners are sold when they have an algae issue or just want a pleco. I was just stating one that could live in a 10
