Re: Bristlenose pleco breeding

I took an airboat ride over Thanksgiving in Florida. While waiting in line, I noticed that every single fish in that lagoon had an aquarium origin. Nothing I saw looked native.

Humans have devastated so many ecosystems...

I never kept BN before and was vey suprised how good they are at cleaning the glass/plants ect. I see most people use a clay cave to breed, would a plastic black/white pipe work just as well? i have 3 juvie L144 Blue eyed leamons hoping for a pair as they are only 2" at the moment.

Bristlenose breed like rabbits, so anything works. If all the caves are taken, I've had BN's just lay egg masses in the tank. If you take these out of the way of predation, they'll hatch out just fine without parental care.

I took one myself about 3 years ago in the town of Christmas Florida and he was trying to show us alligators and he had a hard time finding one. That is such a nice ride. Now if you want some snakes it's hunting season.
