Vložit
- čas přidán 9. 02. 2019
- Today I will showing all types of bristlnose plecos! From standard fin to long fin in albino, common, blue eye leucitic, super red, and calico colors.
Let me know what your favorite is!?
Most of my more rare colored plecos are on backorder but go check out my website at www.biancosfish.com
Thank you for watching and if you haven't yet SUBCRIBE and LIKE :)
They are awesome looking fish
Beautiful plecos i had a albino bristlenose pleco i raised her from a little baby and i grew her up to 6 inches.
How long have you had her?
@@Shasa2008 5-6 years she died 1 year ago
YOU are so lucky to have so many different kinds!
You can get some really gigantic common bristlenoses, Ancistrus cf. cirrhosus. I got mine as fry from someone who bred them and the female was gigantic so I can only expect him to grow to be quite large, I believe she was easily 15cm SL. With the wild-type colouration size varies a lot.
Ancistrus are my favourite genus of Loricariidae, but I do prefer the really odd ones which probably in time will end up in an independent genera.
I have just one male bristle nose after my fish passed. I'm not entirely sure how to fully care for him but he keeps me company.
8 corydoras and ul have all the homies u need
I’m looking for a male for my female if you’re interested in letting go of him
I love your video man! Very nice editing skills. Thank you for the video.
Thank you, I appreciate it!
I love Super Reds! I currently have one and looking forward to buy a pair for it to breed. I also have a pair of LF Lemons that are unusually lighter in pigmentation.
Awesome job with the F1!
I know plecos are covered in something like an armour, but it looks so brutal holding them with bare hands 😂 I've had t bristlenose plecos ("normal" and albino) for like 14 years and i love them.
gammelfleischparty tey are adorable
Yep. They look so soft until you try to pick one up and they start goring your skin up with those fucking scales...
Just want to say thanks, it's really good to know about the calicos coming out in the F2 gen
I can see them better in the tank, and then they aren’t unnecessarily held out of water like that....
TOXIC_ASF 😂😂😂
@TOXIC_ASF it is tho
It’s not gonna kill them, anything past 20 seconds is not gonna be too good for ‘em.
Sean Leung it won’t do Anything
I mean... yeah, it’s basically the equivalent of holding your breath, but past a certain point and the average fish is gonna start having trouble. This is usually past 30 seconds to a minute out of water.
I have one of those blue eye leucistic with the black dot (Snow White pleco) he is adorable
Thats awesome!!
Very very AWESOME! Tk u for this!🙌🙌
Love those super reds!
Might need one for my new planted tank in the new pad mate👌🏻🐟 they look great!
Oh yeah! I'll hook you up
Plecos...one of the few dish that blink!
wow love the yellow albino, right now I have one female black, and the same coloured male bristnose. currently have eggs, so exiting!!!
Bristlenose plecos and bushynosed plecos are the exact same fish no difference at all ;)
I was thinking the same thing
I think we are dealing with several subspecies, producing a great difference in some lines.... we will lose or have already lost the wild species
Hey this is soo good what types do you have now? I live in Australia i only just got my hands on longfin superreds, i also have a 2 strange longfin superwhites no pattens at all that are around 1.5 inch long and had them for 2 months so no idea if stunnted or sick because they dont grow.
I'd love to have you do a presentation at my club in NYC. Also would love to purchase a few pairs!
Maybe one day! thanks for watching, growing up some pairs now and looking to start shipping fish again coming soon
If I observed correctly, you heat the room and not the individual tanks, and only use sponge filters. What is your water change schedule / procedure like?
That is correct. I do 50% water changes weekly (or recently been cleaning sponge filters in place of water change every other week)
Great Video bud, with the blue eyes (L144) I thought the black spot it may be a paradox mark which isn't genetic just a fluke, but... you've produced a good few with the black spot so I'm really exited to find out what your F1s turn out like :) keep up the good work your videos are very much enjoyed :)
Thank you, yeah I'm really excited see what I get
Greg Sage over at Select Aquatics has Green Dragons.
Nice to see different kinds of plecos in your fish room tour and the breeding projects you intend in the near future. I noticed your angels are fighting with each other as they have some damaged fin tails. Try moving them to different tanks. I find you do regular tank maintenance as these plecos are known to produce a lot of ammonia. Get some guppy grass and feed them a slice of cucumber once in a while to keep their bowls moving. Tip in order for the cucumber to sink drop the sliced cucumber into boiling water. cover it with a lid to avoid water cooling off. In few minutes it will sink. take it out run it under running tap water in order for it to cool off. Drop it in the fish tank. I see other CZcamsrs who also breed plecos but they do not keep the tanks as clean as you do. Liked and subscribed to your channel.
I’ve got a normal brown one a calico and a albino, getting two peppermints next weekend!! Would like getting a pearl one too 😍
Also, my male grew the same spot on his head after breeding during watching his eggs
Smaller is better for me. If I wanted a bigger one there are plenty other types of bigger plecos.
Good information.. I bought some sf blue eyed from Mike's cichlids,and 1 has started to grow a black spot on it's tail fin.. I'm also having problems with green dragons.. I've bought from 2 breeders here from Ohio. Last group I bought the guys 2yr old breeding group. The male is so short 3in full of bristles. 2 out of each group have spots. Which I'm told isn't pure.. So I guess they need more line breeding like you mentioned. Kinda like with other fish..
How to tell the difference between a chocolate bristle nose pleco and a regular bristle nose pleco?
Thanks for sharing. Great video. Question for you, what temperature do you find ideal for the bristlenose. I know you keep a lot of angels, Guppies, and Rams. And I believe you said your room is heated. So just curious what the temperature is for the plecos. Thanks
plecos do good at around 78 but have had them from 76-82
I just had 3 or 4 clutches from a tank with all albino. Almost have came out back with gold. This just happened 2 weeks ago so they are still very small. Has anyone ever had all albino's and half the clutch is dark?
nice! yes love getting a variety hatch :)
Great video 👌👌👌
Eek, fithy tanks!
Bristlenose 👌
The black spot is common on those and normally it’s not a good thing to have . Here in the states if you have that on it most ppl don’t buy them the spot can be a bacterial issue look it up
Hey bud great video. Isn't starlight also a bristlenose?
I am currently breeding my super red male in a tank with an albino female and a super red female. I have gotten four batches of babies from the albino female with him and all have been wild type. And I have gotten one batch from him and the red female and all of them were also wild type. Does anyone have any suggestions for how I can true a pure strain of super red? I currently am supplying local fish stores with the wild type ones and Am breeding for profit. If i can get some pure reds breeding i would be able to sell for double
I had a similar thing happen. try holding back some babies and breed them back to each other for a generation or two, that's how I created my calico/red marble line :) Good luck and keep up the good work
@@pittsburghpets3759 I am currently growing out five of the babies from the first generation. I also brought for standard fin reds and four longfin red to grow out and breed
Pittsburgh pa? I’m from Pittsburgh also. Good video. I just bought a calico bristlenose
Could you show us a male and female common pleco? What age do they breed from birth?
What's tank requirements for optimal growth and breeding?
Awesome fishes.
Yeah I showed a female but can show a male. 9 month to a year is common but around 6 months they start showing breeding behaviors. A 20 gallon long works great for me with a cave or two. Thank you
@@pittsburghpets3759
Thank you 4 reply.
So about 6months you could identify males and females?
Do the males have whiskers at 6 months to identify them? Females at 6 months wont have any ?
I wish there was a dwarf variety small enough for a 10 gallon tank.
If some of your fish are already small, you could work on that & actually achieve new miniature variety!
Can an albino bread with a common?
Yes
Hi mitch. Well it looks like all of your different types are getting big enough to let go. I put my tank up this weekend so i figure 2 weeks from now we should be ready. I really hope i will be able to get at least one young pair that can produce all 3 colors as in the video. Let me know. Thankyou. Ron. Z.
Sounds good, I'm ready when you are
for green dragons, go to selectaquatics.com, Greg Sage
Hi mate can you ship to Australia I’ll buy about 10 or more super red longfin and the other ones
sorry I cant ship to Australia yet. idk how much more it would cost to ship, would like to be able to in the future but not sure if its possible
Pittsburgh Pets where are you from
Is there a particular color of bristlenose that stays small? Will they be ok with south american dwarf cichlids? Just 1 bn pleco with a pair of apistogramma boreilli?
is 'pleco' correct, or should they be called catfish. I was corrected by a shop assistant when i reffed to them as bristle-nosed pleco's.
no your correct! technically are in the catfish family but they are a bristle nose pleco
They’re plecostomus, plecostomus are catfish. So either is fine, but pleco is more specific.
Nice video! What type of white marker is that that you use to write on the tank glass?
paint sharpies
I lost my previous comment- can you do a part 2 of this video? I am curious about your spot project. Also have you started working with the green dragons yet? I am starting my BN hobby. I have some I am super excited about and would love to know other people experiences. I have a question- is it bad to breed sister and brother? should we do different blood lines? I have a green dragon coming with a green mom and lemon dad that I want to breed with both a pure green dragon and etc... One more question...Is a calico essentially a hybrid of 2 colors creating the calico?
omg those long tails look gorgous
hey your fish look really nice, but I hate how you grab them, we can see them fine from inside the tank. If you really must it would be better to just disturb them to move inside the tank for a view. Rather than taking them out just for the video.
Nice!!! What do you feed them? I had some dark eyed leucistic bistlenose plecos, but the female grew to 4" and the male was about 4 & 1/2" with no signs of stopping, so I gave them to a local fish store & got some Gold marble plecos (LDA08 - Ancistrus claro) which should stay under 3" I hope. But, I'm wondering if maybe I fed them too many high protein pellets???
I feed algae wafers from aquatic foods
Can someone tell me if it's normal that when i look at my pleco with a magnefing glass each scale has a "" Gold "" shine at the end !!!!!!
Do not know if she's a common or i have a Lemon spot something like that !!! loll
The Longfin Bristlenose plecos are one of my favorite aquariumfish!
Hi just wanted to let you know that we were talking about a purchase and I paid you but you haven’t responded just want to make sure we get in contact
Will check my emails tonight. Sorry for any delays
Hi Mitchell, I have a bristle nose in my 15 gallon. Is this big enough for him?
yeah will be good in there :)
Hey man, have any thing available at the moment?
Where can I get that net my bristlenose always gets caught in my regular net
They can be tough to find, I've tried a few from amazon but usually just look in the pet stores and can tell from touch and look
I have a male and female standard fin green dragon bristlenose plecos in a grow out tank right now their definitely ready to breed.. im live in Pittsburgh contact me if your interested
Squish da fishy
Hi!
How to identify between a baby common pleco and baby bristlenose pleco?
can tell by body shape and size, recommend asking seller
I just had a breeding happen with my lemon. Mated with in 2 hours of being introduced. Want to start selling because they are in a 15g nd i don't have room. I am also throwing out bags of water lettuce a week from my 3 tanks. Like to start selling / tradi g
Do u have green dragons now and starlight and peppermint?
No green dragons yet, they are pretty cool though! I like the red marbles the most currently 😁
I have a bristol nosed pleco a male he is 5 and a half cm long and it sais on google that plecos in 54 litre tanks like mine grow to 12cm
We purchased (3) 2" spotted bristlenose plecos from Petco around 2 yrs ago, and none of them have shown any bristles and are around 4" now...wondering if we were sold something else?
may have all females
Females don’t have bristles on the head, only on the lip. Males have bristles on the head.
Whats the rope kinda thing you have in your tanks?
I have multiple tank syndrome pretty bad and now when my fiance comes home and sees styrofoam he asks with trepidation how big of a tank I got this time.
Heya! I was researching about calicos! Do they get bushy noses also or do they not get them? I found this hard to know! Thanks for the video super informative!
They'll get bristles it's just a colour mutation all same species
@@donlofting4268 thank you for the answer :) appreciate it!
Your website says you are out of all bristlenose plecos? Is it out of date? Or are there none available?
I am breeding wild caught spotted medussa's..............awesome bn
I seen you had your website but I was wondering if I could buy a super red or blue eye male? I have a female common mature so I’m trying to find a male
I sell locally if your close. currently not shipping, sorry
What temp is the tank with the rams and bristlenose?
I'm local to Pittsburgh, do you have a store??
I don't have a store but do sell locally. can email me at biancosfish@gmail.com
Questions how long does it take to get them 1"-2"? Let's say I have about 60-100 in a 10 gallon grow out tank. Do I need to upgrade the grow out tank to something bigger?
Mine took 3-4 months. Growth rate depends on how much they’re eating and how clean the water is. Fry are so small I think 10gal could hold a batch as long as you’re keeping an eye on water parameters and have time to do water changes when needed. But 60-100 fish are collectively going to put on mass quick. So if this grow out tank is to get them to an inch I’d definitely upgrade. You can feed them more before needing water changes in a larger tank.
@@Chris18o0 Ya I got no room in there I've had them for 3 months and they are 3/4 inch. I've already started making a rack for some 20 gallon longs. What temps do you like to keep the fry at?
AA I keep them at 77f. However I haven’t had enough spawns and tanks to experiment for an ideal. It’s worked for me so I try to not rock the boat. What temp did you keep the fry at? And what temp did they spawn for you?
@@Chris18o0 I live in Southern California so my temps run hot. I'm at about 79-83 any given day depending on the heat outside. I've only had 3 spawns and I can't really tell you so I guess I've been lucky. I don't think it would be safe for me to lower my temps to 77 it might fluctuate too much when it gets hot. Maybe my fry are not growing in the hotter temps I don't know. Thanks for the info I'll keep on trying.
What are those red and blue things in the aqariums. Look at the time 2.20
acrylic yarn, I get it off of amazon

You realy think it's ok to handle any fish like that?? Holding the head while the back is wiggling like crazy in full fear mode? You never should handle fish like that if you respect the beings you are taking care of..
I want to like the long fins but I don’t for some reason
Hi there, love your bristlenose. Was wondering is thier size due to inbreeding early on in captivity. Also are the ones in with the rams fin nipped? Are calico a pied genetic? Also in bird breeding a spot like those you were talking about that spot is almost always a split pied that shows (in birds splits can be both sex linked and recessives) so I would say your spot fish would be split calico
Hope to hear from you
Regards Duzzy from 🇦🇺
Thank you! The size in bristlenose plecos is smaller, its normal. No the rams don't bother the plecos. The calico is a color mutation, different than bird genetics. In plecos the only difference from male to female is the size, bristles, and in the red strains ive found the males get a darker red.
Hope this answered your questions,
Thank you for watching! :)
Omg a fish out of water not good put the fish back in the water we can see the good enough though the glass. Can't watch anymore
Curious as to why your Bristlenose don’t have wood.
they do like the wood but not always a must depending on the foods you are feeding
Are you selling any 3-4 inch calicos or super reds?
I know I asked before but was curious if you’d be interested in selling a male super red or lemon blue eye now that some of the COVID has died down please lmk I’m really trying to get going and I need a male for my female common! Lmk thanks
One more question, is max size same among all colors?
I think 4-7” max...
How do I contact you to order pleco? Need only 2 super red adults
Is it okay to keep tiger barbs with bristlenose plecos?
yes.
I don't do it in too small of a tank (like a 10 gallon) but yes definitely can
When are you gonna have more rams available
Have stopped breeding them, may start back up in the future
I have one question, do females have bristles? Im interested in getting an albino pleco
No they do not, or they have every small ones
No. Only on the lip, not on the head.
