I set a tank up for my dad about a month ago and added 2 blue eyed bristle nose pleco's. They have had babies, he said you better come round and get them before his keyhole eats them, there's about 5. I caught the 5 and looked in a hollow piece of bog wood and found more, 18 in total. So I got them home and set up a tank for them. I'm amazed because the adults are less than 2" long. Thought they had to be bigger before they are sexually mature? The babies are about 1cm and he only just noticed them so I'm guessing they are about a month old?
