I have 2x 4" widebars. 1x 6" endi and 3x 2" clown loaches. I was wondering if its safe to add my 2x 2" plecos to the tank. They have alota wood, and rocks to cling to.
will they be eaten?

Well, I had the arowanas with them when they were around 8" so I dont see why they would get eaten. Just wanted to make sure. thanks.
only thing ive seen eat a pleco was my uncles giant crawdad, that thing was viscious and ripped open the pleco's stomach and ate the insides.. then the jag in the tank ate the crawdads tail the day after..there was just the abdomen and claws left.. the jag won!
I have no experience with the fish you are keeping but pleco's are not as untouchable as some people have suggested
my Pangasius Sanitwongsei are indiscriminate killers, they have eaten 3 plecos since october, when the PS were 2.5" they ate a 2" pleco, at 3.5" they ate the 3" pleco at 6" they ate the 4.5" pleco. They are about 8-9" now and I only have one pleco that survived, hes only 5 or so inches but is sneaky and hides a lot.
Id make sure they had lots of cover and places to hide, I'm not sure if I would introduce them to the tank if the other fish are already in there; I'd want to give them a few days to learn escape routes and hiding spots
