I don't know who did it, but your pleco will be fine. I've got one that a Kenyi ate the eyes out over a year ago and he's still going strong.

I am just wondering who people think is the most likely suspect. The pleco has also had part of his jaw ripped out now too.
And I will add no one other than the convict in my tank (although he was only roughed up for one day and by everyone) has any fin shreddage or wounds or anything. They all get along.
I thought plecos were supposed to be fairly innocuous.

Sometimes a particular fish is just not tolerated by another. I had the same situation with a pleco and an African Kenyi. She killed two plecos (she ate the eyes first and then killed them a week or so later) before I gave her to a buddy.
As long as you don't have any further problems, your pleco will be fine. Mine has even grown the camo pattern where his eyes used to be. He still finds food and acts as normal as when he had eyes. And he's still a poop machine, lol.
I have a 10" pleco that takes a beating from my 3" pink convict. Pink is just a bad ass little girl though. Her mate (a 5" black con) don't bother it none at all. But get Pink riled up,....... look out.
