Bristlenose Questions

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Once the heiarchy is reached the dominant one prevails. The others will stay out of his way. A 75 is large enough to keep all four in there just make sure everyone has a cave of their own. Try feeding them NLS pellets with the garlic in them. They will be fine in there for life.
 
I do not blanch veggies when i feed them,my bn plecos eat carrots,green peppers,cucumbers,algae wafers,zuchinni and peas. My oldest is 5 years old and has never had a problem digesting or eating them raw. btw mangos seem to be there favorite treat.

I will try mangos next time I go to the store!
 
I wonder if it is possible that I don't even have bristlenose plecos and that I have something else...

How big are they? I'm pretty sure they are bristlenose.

They are all around 4, maybe one is 5 inches.
 
I tried carrots last night and they were on them as soon as they hit the bottom!
