Well I took out the harlequin and put in the red tail so we will see if another bichir shows any signs of stress then I guess the vampire pleco gets the boot.
my guess would b the pleco is eatn the bichirs slime coat causen the light patches and disease in ur bichirs i bet if u pull the pleco from the 230g the bichirs would b fine in there
