Ive kept my rays with L160, L190, L191 L200 and L91 without problems. But both leopracanthicus sp and psudacanthicus sp is a gamble since they are carnivorous species and like to taste the rays slimecoat. They can make nasty wounds. Ive never had any problems but know of people having trouble same goes with scobinancistrus sp
Cool, do you have any pics? I know it's grey area when it comes to this subject where it works for some and not for others
Atm i dont have any plecos with my rays at all. I keep my three rays with an datnioid and 4 small gouramis right now. Ive only got an L160 L190 and an L200 left. Ive sold all of my plecos like a year ago and recently bought back three of them.
I keep a couple Luteus, a L330 and a BEC with rays. Never an issue. I know multiple peopl who keep Pseudacanthicus with rays without issue. I dont keep my Pseudas with rays because I am trying to breed them.
It is believed by many of us that the reason plecos go after rays slimecoat is because 1. They are not getting enough to eat or 2. They are lacking something nutrionally in their diet. Non of this of course is proven scientifically but just a theory amongst some of us hobbyist.

Haha this sound so casual. How are the prices of luteus in india? Over here in sweden they cost about 1200euro for a phase 2
