Can you use eco complete with Bristlenose pleco

Hello everyone! 

I have a 20 gal heavily planted tank that I would like to add a Bristlenose pleco to. He was given to me (I had very little knowledge of plecos when he was given to me as a gift) and has outgrown the 10 gal tank. The 20 gal I want to add him to has eco complete as a substraight... Will eco complete hurt him? He doesn't hang out a ton on the substraight but I am a little concerned about the eco complete being too rough and possibly cutting his belly. Does anyone have any experience with eco complete and a pleco?

I think you will be fine. I had plecos on eco complete and they were fine. As long nothing in the tank is causing it to zoom around the tank and make it accidently cut itself, you should be fine. Also, that pleco will enjoy it in a heavily planted tank.

It should be fine. I have a pair of bn that breed in a 20 with ecocomplete. The male  even burrows in it sometimes. I've never noticed a scratch on them and since they're albino I think it would be noticeable.
