Possibly Problems With Pleco And Melanochromis

[MikeD67]

Ok well even since yesterday when i put algae disc in my tank for my Cichlids and my Pleco and the pleco and Melanochromus Cynearhabdos kept trying to intimidate each other for one of the disc ( the pleco got it in the end) My Melanochromis wont let it go.. He continues to go to my pleco and start making his body shake while swimming next to him then this ends up causding the two to swim in circles shaking there bodys at each other. What exactly is going on here its weird and i dont know if i should be worried but the pleco is only one of the fish that obviously challenges the Melanochromis dominance cause as far as the others hes the big fish daddy lol.heres a pic of my pleco so you know what kind he is maybe its the species of pleco i got i dont know.

Very common so no need to worry. Plecs can take care of themselves provided they are not tiny and your Cyaneorhabdos should soon get bored with trying to intimidate him as it won't work.
