Re: more bristlenose babys

Sheesh!   FOUR females?!?!   How'd (where'd) you get 4 females to one male??  I had 6 full grown males but no females so I ended up giving a few away.  I haven't been able to find any females locally so the poor guys are probably all stressed out thinking they're in some sort of prison or something.  Let me know if you wanna send a female over for them.  They'd probably love ya forever for it  :).

Re: more bristlenose babys

im gonna have to look. i think i have males and 1 female. will the albino breed with the black ones?  are they live bearers?

[Spot86t]

Re: more bristlenose babys

they're egglayers.  if albino and black are same species they will breed, possibly if they are compatible species they will also breed.
