My girlfriend has a 55 gallon tank with community fish. She also has a 6.5 inch pleco. She wants to know if she can add cory cats to her tank as well or will her pleco attack them?
Anybody have any ideas?

She has:
2 discus
Silvertip tetras
Glow light tetras
zebra danios
scissortail rasboras

I have a pleco and albino corys and they don't even acknowledge one another. I don't think she'll have a problem.

my pleco generally hangs on the top of his cave all day unnoticed. the only time io ever see him cleaning algae is when the lights are off. Everything should be fine with hte pleco.

as plecos get larger they become cranky and pushy so just be aware
