Clown Pleco (L104) is a catfish, so the pairing works best when the planting style supports how that fish uses space and cover.

Capuron's Aponogeton reaches about 45 cm tall by 20 cm wide and is usually bulb / tuber on or partly in substrate with nutrient-rich substrate preferred. That makes placement and anchoring more important than simply adding a larger bunch of stems or leaves.
