Do you guys think a large datnoids will swallow or kill a 3 -4 inch pleco? I got a few L134 plecos in my 125 and 3 10" kois that I'm keeping inside till the cold weathers gone an was thinking bout getting a datnoid
 
How big of a dat? If it is under 5 inches im sure it would be fine, but you never know. I've had a dat eat plecos, but it was a 6" dat with 2" LF bushynoses.
 
Personally pleco's tend to pick on my datnoids so I don't keep them together but if your worried about the datnoid eating ur pleco I doubt it datnoids in my opinion seem to mine there own business (semi-aggresive). What size is your datnoids and what size is the pleco?
