Do you trust Bristlenose and Plecos in a planted tank?
Do they leave you Sword Plants alone?

I'm pretty sure that my Bristlenose is damaging my newly emerging leaves of my swords.
I think I may catch it tonight with a torch and move it to another tank, then in a month or so I will know if it's the culprit.

Haha i had to move a plec to a tank downstairs with no plants in as it was like a trail of brown string everywhere in the tank and they dont even eat that much!
