many pleco's will eat wood to help with their diet. My royal is constantly chewing away at my mopani wood. Usually at night I can hear him rasping on it. When I first put him into the tank, I had finally managed to get a nice layer of lush green algae onto it. it was gong the next day, by the following day my piece of wood had a shiny appearance to it since he had cleaned it off so well.
