I've Just put some new plant (Wisteria) into a 18gal tank, with 2 kribensis and some algea eaters....and they are eating away at it slowly swimming around it and chewing everytime they swim past...will the plant survive a week? or a day even....will they ever stop?

If they keep up the munching then, no the plant won't survive. It's hard to say whether they'll ever stop. It's like kids, most hate greens, but my little nephew only eat greens and hates meat. So either take out the fish or the plant, or just try another type of plant, usually fish won't feast on every kind of aquatic plant.

Hmmm yes...They have seemed to stop now that all the excitement has past, lol yes they are only small, teenagers in human terms, the algea eater like the plant alot and gets some good food off it cause its always sucking onto it..yeah thanks for your help and all should be well
