If hes already going after him you might have problems in the future. Any tankmates? Grab some dither fish to guide attention away from the pleco

Saw your tank setup on another thread you do know you need bogwood to keep a pleco, it part of theie diet.
Also do you know what type of pleco it is? common (L021, L23 i think) pleco grow big.
Also your tank is not cycled or even very mature yet so be careful adding new fish. The more fish the more the bio-load the harder it will be to control any ammonia spikes.

I have no bog wood in my tanks and my plecos always grow really large. All ypu need to do is drop in a couple algae wafers
