Plecos Together? Photos To Suggest Yes!

Just to show my Common and Cochliodon(L137) feeding together.

They pretty much keep out of each other's space until there is a lump of courgette on offer!

About 4 and a bit inches.......had them both since tiddlers. The common (£2.99 from P@H ages ago) will outgrow the tank eventually but hopefully the Cochliodon will be able to stay (had it for a few years now)

Well I got one marked as a Violet Cochliodon(L137) (AKA Rusty Pleco?) The other as a plain Common Pleco.

They are pretty good photos so you Plec experts are free to comment
