Bossy pleco!

[EpiC]

Hey there My pleco is the undisputed boss of my cichlid tank.
He bullys my oscar and my texas.
Just wondering if anyone else gets this is this relatively normal?

 

[davo]

Yeah, normal behaviour... will depend on what species of pleco it is, and some species of cichlids may not take the crap the pleco gives... but the right combo will give you your situation... if that makes sense lol

 

[Tokis-Phoenix]

How exactly does he bully your other fish?

 

[EpiC]

haha its actually quite funny
He just i guess rams them and chases them away and then noses around their territory. hes about the same size as the oscar and slightly bigger then my texas

Not to terribly uncommon.

That'd be a nice sight. I love plecos, but i'm too lazy to buy one, but even when i do buy one, they are always either over priced or too small/big
