my title is my question one day i noticed my female pleco hiding from the male and the very next day the female was dead with her under side ripped open . i and wondering if anyone else has had this problem
 
I have had two males fight to the death without my realizing there was the level of territorial problem that there was. I suppose it is possible. Did not notice until the next morning when I found them quite dead, sorry to say.
 
It can happen, yes. The male might not want to breed and the female does, or the inverse.
