Pleco with elong?

[VinceC_69]

Hey all,

I was just wondering if anyone has had luck keeping a pleco with a elongatus Piranha? I have my crayfish in there with him (hes a big one) and hes doing fine. Thanks all

I had no luck with any pleco as tank mate with my rhoms, I guess it depends on the elong itself. how big is the elong? get a larger pleco

that crayfish will be dinner soon or later i garuntee, also the pleco might work if larger so try it

i think depend how old the elong is and how big the pleco is

ya i have a common pleco "12in" with my black right now he is fine but he will nip at him sometimes but in the flipside that he can eat him too so its a chance

you could try it, just don't get attached, chances are slim, but if there is a lot of cover the pleco will have a better chance of surviving.

I have 3 tiny plecos (2in) with my rbs, some times I see them take a look at them start to swim towards them, then just stop the pursuit.

I also another pleco with my manny, he hasn't touched it, or the 8 guppies I put in there has a lot of plant cover.

may work for a while but in the end it will prob get munched

plecos get eaten with piranhas a lot
