Royal Pleco with Ray?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I've been told you should't keep any pleco with rays. But I'm sure some will tell you they have kept pleco with rays successfully. I personally wouldn't because pleco tend to suck on rays disk. Therefore, stressing them out.

I've done it for years, but can't say its foolproof. If you give it a try, remember to have a backup plan......:D

If you keep the plecs well fed, then theres nothing to worry about. But.... I've been wrong before......

Sean,
Add a UV Sterilizer (prefer Coralife Turbo Twist) and forget about plecos. Better, learn from my horrible mistake, forget all type of bottom feeders if you want to keep your rays healthy
