[GSAS-Member] plants and bristlenose

[pwallace@u.washington.edu]

John:

These ple*o are not to be trusted particularly with amazon swords and it could happen 
that they stir things up or damage plants via grazing but are generally considered 
"plant safe".

Some ple*os (unsure of bristlenose) use a different rasping action that can 
damage plastic tanks.
