I've hears (from www.austinsturtlepage.com) about a pleco that attached itself to the face of a turtle, and ate its eyelids. The turt recovered with some TLC, but I don't how common this is.

I read one about a pleco attaching itself to the shell of a turtle and making a hole, poor turtle, I don't remember what the outcome was though, good, I hope.

I wonder if that is a true story. I bet it isn't.
