Chinese algae eater

[Paulo]

Today i found out I have a chinese algae eater...I thought it was a siamese
algae eater...All teh websites I have checked say that this is a territorial
fish once old...among other fishes, this one share the bottom of the tank
with a pleco (leopard). ChAE is 4" now, and so far seems to be very
peaceful....like to make caves in the gravel and spent most of the day
inside them. The onlly food he/she is eating is algae pellets.....Anyways,
does someboy has expericen with these ChAE? I am getting very concern
now....I read they can be very nasty...

Thanks
