by the way...everyone talks about plecos with piranhas....anyway i removed my pleco....a few weeks ago...and now my Pseudotropheus Saulosi and him fight like worse than i have ever seen...if the pleco goes near his hole the cichlid comes out and tries and does bite him...they literally look like the odl cartoons with the cloud of smoke... i dont know if he can pearce the armor of then pleco...i feel bad tho.

Sounds like you might need a few more hiding spots, that way they're less likely to cross paths often.

the thing is the pleco has a whole hollowed out driftwood. the only time they fight is when the pleco does he im hungry im gonna search for food routine and goes into the cichlids home haha.
 
Tropic Isle has Archers. 15.99 a piece. Silver needlefish would be cool also. But you need a whole school of them for them to be comfortable.

Plecos are tough, don't worry about it. If he's really getting beaten badly maybe he'll stop going in there. Still, more hiding places can't hurt.
 
6 if they're not too expensive. Make sure to ask what they're eating and do your research first.
 
bumpy i will tell you once and i will tell you a thousand time...NOTHING are safe with piranha in long time, and yes including your pleco.
