If they are both juvies, it may work but I wouldn't wait long & I'd take the present one out, redecorate (heavily), add the new one, wait an hour & then add the present one. I kept mine with a large Royal pleco but it killed any other fish, including new modestus added after it was an adult.

both are from the same petstore, and same tank. Both came in on the same order aswell..
I was thinking of trying a whipetail cat or bushynose pleco in the tank...

double checked with my LFS, its a modestus.

Heh... be CAREFUL with that!
Many animals (with a few exceptions...schooling fish etc.) see "buddies" merely as competition for territory, food, and mates.
