One of my beautiful girls I’ve watched grow from a fry. What’s yours?

Hi all

When I first got Jack she was such a tiny little snapper and had no idea of the gender. Shes my OB (original Bristlenose) and I’ve loved watching her grow and run rings around the tank. She’s a little sassy bombshell... Look at that little fat tummy!!

I think I see a snail, but how did you do the rocks?

Wow!!! What a beautiful, lovely girl! i have a bristle nose pleco too! Such a wonderful fish! She is a female as well but never seems to be sucking on the glass. She is mainly just hiding in her mini cave, and I don't know why... She used to be super active! I give her an algae wafer once a day, and she loves it! What do you feed your beautiful pleco? These are great pics too BTW! I love all the patterning and detail on her body too! You take very good care of this bristle nose pleco! Well done!

I have nine of the breeding machines and a few babies. The rock are glued on to the glass

I have candy and Jack which are my girls and handsome Kevin which is my albino male. All 3 are always out and about cleaning etc. I feed twice a day spirilla algae waffles and they have either fruit or veggies once a week. I feed them skinned grapes the other day and they went crazy. Thank you for your kind words about her, she’s pretty amazing

Love your pleco! Shes so chunky!

Ive got a few ive raised from fry.

Freebie, my guppy girl was a tiny fry mixed in the neon tetras at the store, shes now a big pretty plain girl.
When i first saw her

Recent. Nothing "special", basically a feeder guppy, but she's special to me and shes too cute.

Ive also raised 3 of my platies that i have from wee little fry born in my tanks. Found homes for their siblings but kept 3.

And then theres the little cory... he was a rescue with others but he was just a little baby and in very very bad shape. He was just barely over half an inch long.

Love the bronze As everyone knows I’m a sucker for cories!! I got a few little bubs in my Cory colony that are just adorable!
I got a guppy that I raised from birth, mumma pasted while giving birth and I got 3 little fry. She’s a little girl and called lucky as she was my only one that survived.
look at the size differences with your platy, so cute and tiny and now all grown
