Fancy pleco sensitivity

[Southjerseycichlidz]

Are any plecos more sensitive than others?? My lfs mainly Carrys just bristle nose he orders snow ball green phantom blue phantom golden nugget and stuff like that but hey never last longer than a day or two. He acclimated them more than I've seen any other store do most of the stores by me just dump fish right in. So I was wondering what a typically hardy fancy pleco was

I have L14, L191,L114, BN and have no issues but can't keep a rubber lip pleco no matter how many I've tried. Royals are pretty easy.

Green phantoms don't like higher temps ime

Wild caught vs. captive bred also makes a difference in terms of tolerable conditions.

Yes, the more common the pleco the least sensitive they tend to be. Commons, Sailfin and Bristlenose are about the toughest. Zebra, King tiger and those types are more sensitive.
