My baby tank has six clowns loaches under 2", three blue rams at 2", 2 cory cats just over 2", and a 6 inch common pleco.


Or well it did.... I'm missing a female blue ram. One day it was there and the next it wasn't. The Pleco is the only fish big enough to.... No way right? :screwy:
 
Might happen but unlikely, if the fish was trapped, injured, or dead the pleco would probably eat it. Check under and around your tank and in your filter.

yeh, what guppy said.. :)
 
I have had problems with male rams not taking nicely to females, my guess would be that the female got killed by the male and the pleco cleaned up. I don't know about common pleco's but my blue eye panque has been caught catching and eating small tetras.
 
If it has been missing for a while then it was probably eaten. If not, look for a jumper.
 
Rams can be tricky I had a pair that would not tolerate other fish witch is odd for rams. But I have had sail fin plecos attack other fish if there are to many bottom dwellers, Remember Plecos are territoral. Regard, Matt
