If you are able to catch the fish......then rub your finger down the snout. If it is slippery then it is a male, if it is rough then a female!

This has worked for me!

What is the L288, all i know is that it is a peckoltia species, but what does it look like?

jamos

We have the first species in Australia. We call it orange spot bristlenose. And yes we have no idea what it is either?????

We thought it was a hybrid.....

jamos

They were sold as Snow Kings, Pterygoplichthys ambrosettii.

jamos

I am looking for some general information on breeding the Tiger pleco

Any personal experiences would be awesome!

thanks
jamos

i have had cories in a tank with breeding bristlenose. They will eat any of the fry they can catch, which will be most of them!

jamos

We deal with this kind of heat every summer, down here in australia! my tank has got up 33 for before on a regular basis. Water changes late in the afternoon and keeping the sun out of the room during the day will help!

jamos

I am trying to get a pic to make it easier but a small fish in a big tank is not an easy target!!

I will post one asap

jamos

nope not that one either!

Spots are the same size as a starlight/starry nights!

jamos

the only thing different to the pic are that they dont have patches of colour they have deffinite spots!!

jamos

a couple of the pics look similar. I was told these aren't commons but some new type??

They look like the slarlight, except they have gold spots and lack the solid colouring on the dorsal and tail and are brown!

looks like they might just be a nice variation of the common?

jamos

does anyone know anything about these?

thanks
jamos

Can please have any and all info on breeding Lemon sptted green plec please!

thanks
jamos

jamos

Thank you for the speedy reply

Is there anything you dont know??? lol

jamos

Please help me indentify this.....



jamos

Thanks geof!

Thanks for the advise. I dont want to cross breed as i think it is wrong!

Has any one had any experience with discus eating fry????

thanks
jamos

I am looking to start breeding a second type of b'n but have limited tanks space at the moment and was wondering if they will cross breed if they are put into the same tank as the other?

There is currently commons in there and i want to add starlights

jamos

I also have a couple of yellow ones????

I have found that if you feed them a lot of pumpkin they will get a yellow tinge to!

jamos

One of these is also commonly known as the L600

Check out this link to the pic on page to see the difference

jamos

I have found that my commons will eat almost any vegies you can find, even pumpkin and they will even eat some friuts like melon etc

jamos

You will find that the adonis will get a bit aggressive as it gets older, but i have never heard of the L200 being aggressive but your gold nugget will be very aggressive as it get bigger!!

jamos

blanched lettuce leaves, pumpkin, cuccumber, peas

they have all worked for me!

jamos

Can some identify this please



thanks
jamos
