Welcome Mike to ZP!
The tank size is not the problem it's the other fish in tank. Do you have any other fish then the two other plecos? If you do I would put food as close to were they hide and do it at night when you go to bed with all lights off! They have a better chance to find food without the competition of the other aggressive eaters. There are a few of us on this forum that raise and spawned our zebras in large tanks without problems.
Good luck
