No. Plecos are classified as herbivores or plant eaters. They are also bottom feeders.
yes
no
no plecos will die
a catfish will eat any fish that is 3/4 its size.
The fins are larger on the sailfin...but almost all the "common plecos" (Hypostomus plecostomus) on the market are actually sailfin plecos (Glyptoperichthys gibbiceps).
You shouldn't expect the plecos to survive just on algae. Get some bottom feeder pellets for them. They need food. Also, that tank is much too small for two plecos, let alone six other fish.
Yes, but make sure that you have enough filtration for the bioload as plecos are pooping machines, and the plecos need to have driftwood in the tank to aid in digestion.
my pleco loves algae pellets.
my pleco ate my frog got sick and died
Either the Chinese Butterfly (hillstream loach) or the Chinese algae eater. Both eat algae, both stay smaller than standard plecos and both are live plant safe.
No. Plecos are omnivores and scavengers by nature.
