Plec advice

[Elephant nose 4]

Hi im looking for a plec to go into my elephant noses tank.
Nothing to big, but it has be ok with meat as my elephant noses get this daily.
I have researched but would like advice here. Veggies also go into the tank for the snails.
This plec isn't for cleaning its for me as I miss not having them.

Please ! Don’t do it . Your Elephant Nose’s should be left alone . The plecostomus will upset everything .

The commonest carnivorous plecs are Hypancistrus and Leporacanthicus.

My elephant noses lived with a plec for 5 years and got on great. I wouldn't do anything that would cause upset I care a lot about my elephants.

Bear in mind a carnivorous plec will eat the elephants’ food, and probably be defensive of its feeding territory.

Yep we have thought of that so I decided to wait.
Thanks for the advice

I’d go for a herbivorous one, if any…

Been to Shed Aquarium, they have elephant nose in a giant tank with tons of plecos... royals, Titanic, common.
