for the last 2week ..two young albino ,one eureka,britenose pleco ( today) some gangter peacock put a 187 on them ......check the water everything seem fine ....im not always at home but when im there its look like a peacekeeper tank .so i dont really know whats wrong or who should i take out.have this ever happen to any of you? my pleco die without eyes and the stomach are torn up real bad same as the 2 albino only the eureka die with full body ...:confused: fck this aint no joke man ...the eureka is one of the show male grrrrr RIP
 
So you think they are being eaten after they are dead, or do you have something in there that is doing it? (Because if it was a peacock it wouldn't be so sudden. IE you would see him hurassing them for a week or so, and then they would end up dead. I would do a major water change, and maybe try either something like coppersafe, or maracyn 1 and 2.
 
Sounds like something else is wrong, when a fish dies first thing the other fish sucks their eyes out.Were you feeding your bottom feeders. You say your water is ok whats your stats .
 
you guys is right something else is wrong i just dunno what's it in the book.yea i do feed my pleco at night with a hanging cucumber, got the w/c on friday ,saturday the plece dead ..my read on sat night.ammonia 0ppm ,nitrite 0ppm ,nitrate 60( about there)i do water change every 2or 3day 40% and i do put prime in there....

What are the remaining living fish left? You gave a list of the dead ones, but not the living ones (that might be the attackers)
 
Your nitrates seemed a bit high to me. I like to keep mine between 20 and 40 ppm. That was the likely problem and you cured it when you did the large waterchange.
