Does anyone know how to breed Clown Pleco's, and how to tell the sex? I have 2 in my freshwater tank, and they were acting funny yesterday and didn't know if they were trying to breed. Any help/ info on this matter would be greatly appreciated!

i would suggest you finding more research online...
Not too many people look into breeding plecos.. most just stick to the simple ones like bristle nose
Heres an article on someone who did breed plecos...

I would say that you should also consider looking into breeding caves... some places sell them online.. but you can make your own.. basically a large 2" PVC pipe with a cover at the end will do.. this is so that it simulates a cave like environment where plecos like to hide and make a nest out out...
I dont know too much about breeding other than what i've come across from forums and what other people who had them breed accidentally... I would also recommmend plecofanatis.. people there have more experience in plecos than on MFK...
