hi everyone

No pictures im afraid as i didnt want to upset him more than he is already.

I bought some gold line pleco's about a week ago and one of them was male. Unfortantly he lived up to his fathers reputation and totally beat up my worm line and my L159.

My worm line is far worse off. She is the most shy pleco in my tank- talka bout typical bully and go after the quiet ones!


Any was she has been totally rasped on behinde the head line on both side not down to raw flesh but he was bleeding. Luckly the damage missed his eyes.
His top fin and tail where also damged.

I put him into my 90ltr that has only two bn's and a couple of bn fry. I figured this would be less stressful. I also added melafix and was planning on doing this for another 6 days. I also added 4 x amount of oxygen that was there.

Is there anything else that i can do to help her?

The L159 has alot less damage I left him in the 330 tank and am also treating that with melafix. He has just lost a couple of patches not down to flesh and no blood.
I also had temp up to try and kill off/ slow down any bacteria.

I have removed and isolated the bully.

Is there anything else i can do for them both?
