I am not sure if this is the right place for posting this, but i could not find a better place. I read a thread on another site by a pleco keeper in Australia whose "peppermint" bristlenose had resumed spawning. So I headed on over here to look up information on this fish. I was reading the page on L071 here http://www.planetcatfish.com/common/spe ... es_id=1249
What I noticed was the reason I am posting here. Under the Husbandry section it states that breeding is unreported. However, reading down in the Further Information section after the list of keepers There is the a subsection for Breeding reports and three of the keepers names appear there as having spawned this fish.
Clearly the page is stating two opposite things in the same breath. Either the fish has been spawned successfully or it has not, it can not be both. So I am a bit confused here and I assume there is a simple explanation for those contradictory statements. Since the 3 people have provided data and some photos in their reports, I assume it is reasonable to think that at least one of them, if not all of them, has successfully spawned this fish.
Have I just stumbled across an oversight in that the comment that breeding is unreported wasn't changed or is there some criteria for this of which I am just not aware? I don't ,eam to be a nit picker but it is my nature I guess.

It's just as simple as the page hasn't been updated since the breeding reports were added. This happens from time to time and I will go and change it now.
