Starlight Bristlenose Success

andyj said:
Nah, it was definitely one of the larger ones ! ;)

They're now all in the Trop88 now, apart from one that made a bid for freedom into the 4'6" tank when I was transferring them into a jug, to then transfer into the Trop !!!! ;)

Ah well, I'm sure I'll be able to identify him/her when they get a little bigger :D

oops :D
 
Do you have any left now that we could swap for the yellow lab fry we were talking about??? I'm planning to get a trigon 190 soon theres only 1 corner of my room left and that way i can get a big tank, i want lots of plecs, tertas and maybee angels and lots of bogwood and hardy plants.

sorry - the yellow labs get too big for the planned tank...
after i get another 2 tanks for the shed and I have a bit of a swap about then i should be able to get some.

In the mean time these are too small to sell.... (I only sold the others under duress :p)
 
Well it probalbly workd out good then cause its not best to post really when there small. Are you getting replacment tanks for the ones that fell through??? If so how big?
 
I've got the shelving already buitl with 2 gaps in..

I need 2x 4ftx1ftx1ft bare tanks.

I could go for 4x 2fts but I already have 5 setup in there and want somethingt o grow the fry out in...
 
i wish that...

a ) you were in the US OR
b ) i was in the UK OR
c ) you could ship to the US

i have been looking for bristlnoses and NO local lfs carries them. they either carry common plecos or no plecos. i want to set up a tank over the summer and would like to get some. especially where they are L182 (starlight bristlenoses). i love the way these plcos look and their care. do you know of a place in the US that may carry them? like a site that ships to the US or a chain store (i.e. petco, petsmart) that is in the US that may carry/special order them? i don't really care for aquabid or ebay as the best looking ones and the best priced are ALWAYS out of the US.

edit: did you get any albinos by chance? i hear that they can pop up in every spawn, but i may be mistaken.
 
thast a nice set up u got there is it still up and running with the bristlenose in we have some L182 and some L183 groups hope ours breed
thx for your time
 
Thread is over 2 years old :)

I've moved on since then... but not from plecs though :)

The shed got shut down due to the cost of running it... The Starlights were sold on to a couple of people on here and are still breeding well :)

I've got a group of true L183's that are from the same source as Windys so I'm hopeing ours will follow suit soon and breed :D

I know the thread is old, but do you still breed Starlight BNs ? I think they look very cute and would love to have some. I can travel to MK.
