any specific pleco species?

 

[Raysocal]

why not a otocinclus or rubber lipped pleco - not exotic but they do a good job, stay small and Pet Smart often has the rubber lips.

I would say BN or rubber lip I always see in planted tanks or go for carnivores plecos shouldn't mess with plants

Every pleco is different not all plecos are discus suckers. I kept 10+ plecos with my discus and never had a problem. It's worth a shot

I keep L46 (zebras), L260 ( Queen Arabasque), & L 134 (Leopard Frog) plecos in tanks planted with anubies.

Starlight bushynose are nice, as far as discus and plecos... I have done it for years with only one issue with a Royal who decided the worm feeding cone was his and used to chase the discus away.
