Plec info

[Rdelusion]

Sorry if this is getting old but I'd really like to find some info on these little fish on the internet.

My LFS is selling what he calls orange and black bristlenose plecs and they are adorable!

about 1-2 inches long and VERY active and friendly! He's had them in a display tank (fish are not for sale in this tank) for about 10 weeks now and they are worse than the cory's for playfulness and activity but I know I could twist his arm to sell them to me.

Anyone know where I can find a picture or info of them on the internet?

black and orange in colour.

The best place to go is www.planetcatfish.com

They have info on every type of pleco and catfish.

However, here is some general info on the Bristlenose.

They can grow up to half a foot long in the wild, but dont grow huge in aquariums. They start off very small in the fish shop but beware they can double their size in a month!

What size tank do you have and what other inhabitants?

I'm in the process of buying a 55 Gal(UK) tank it will have neons, goldnugget, 2 clown plecos, 2 black and orange bristlenoses and a RTBS but they are so small at the moment that even if they triple in size it should still be fine.

I've already had a look on planetcatfish and can't find these little guys anywhere.

I'm gonna take a picture of the at the LFS today or tomorrow and post here so maybe you fish gurus will be able to give me a better idea then.
