Bichers and Plecos

[shookONES]

I've got an L25, L96, and L97 in my tank and want to throw in some bichers. Anyone have issues with plecos sucking on their bichers?

I have a rhino, a del and a weeksii in my 210g. The rhino will attack the weeksii but seems more territorial than anything else. I watch carefully to make sure it does not get out of hand but it is always a concern. I have an L114 that I plan on moving into the 210g and if it gets along better, I might move out the rhino. Its a risk but if you have lots of hiding spots and everyone is well fed, it may work.

I have 2 long fin sens, L114, 204 and starlight bristle in my tank. No problems ever.

I've had 5 rope fish (not the same, but close enough?) with 8 different types of plecos in a 180, no issues yet. Been running with that stocking for 6 months or so. I'm hoping it stays chill. There's some posturing at feeding, maybe a jab here and there but nothing that's done damage.

I had my bichirs bite a Farlowella in half. Not a true pleco but just as armored.

All those plecos are fine with bichirs. I had those before with my bichirs and they do great.
