Albino Bushy Nose

Are Albino Ancistrus one of the easy species to breed?

Because I am looking through all the different species easily available to me and i want to know if i can breed them thanks!

If it is a harder can you tell me waht i can do to help them breed?









I am a total noob with plecos!

 

[WolfFisho1]

so i was reading up on them and it did say they were easy! so i guess thats all i need to know!

if any one disagrees then say something thanks!

Nope. Albinos are just a color morph, and are the same to breed. They can be cross bred with a standard bn, and occasionally you will get a calico bn.

 

[WolfFisho1]

ok thanks a lot WyldFya!

do you have a pic of a calico bn

 

[WyldFya]

No I don't, but they do happen occasionally, and look a lot better than an albino.

do you have a pic of a calico bn

Here's a couple pics of the ones I picked up last month, unfortunately they are still really tiny and can hide almost anywhere in the tank. I can never find them unless I'm changing the layout so these are the only pics I have.

I believe the guy told me they were 3 months old when I picked them up off of him. I grabbed 8 and so far so good

I use 2" PVC for a cave for the male. My best success is to have 1 male and a few mature females. I place the PVC vertically w. a powerhead blowing directly across the opening.

Feed well, and you should have them breeding after a large WC.
