Default Common Pleco L001 VS Nana Plant ?!

Hi all

Wish to ask bro for some advice. I notice my nana stem does not seem to be in the best of health. However, i cannot think of any reason why it should not be as the water parameters is really good

My Tank consist of Tetras, Cory, angels, SAE and a Common Pleco

Hence i am suspecting maybe some fish might have bitten the plant. I how seen both my SAE and Pleco browse my nana and they seem gentle with it however, the biggest suspect IMO is pleco

Can bros please advice if you have experience your pleco eating up/destroying your nana plant ?

Well my L083 Common Pleco turned my Amazon swords into a pile of skeleton in 2 days, most likely is the common pleco.

You mean eat away the algae on your nana plant but not destroy your plant ?
