    Mike, I had a couple of super-reds in a tank with Eco-complete black and noticed it stained the bottom of their stomach black. I have other plecos in other kinds of tanks that never had this effect. It didn’t seem to effect their health, it just made them look funny when they would hang on the front of the tank and you could see their bellies.

    Hi Michael, great video! Just curious, we are thinking of getting into L number plecos, is there any reason you haven't moved into a range of L numbers at all? Some go for over ÂŁ150 in the UK and up, so a lot of money in them?

    Hey bud have a question for you, I seen that most bristlenose plecos are nocturnalbut it seems like the ones that I grow it here home only come out when the light is on that's the only time that they like to come out and explored eat I've tried multiple foods from multiple of your videos I just like to know if it's normal or if it just depends on the schedule that they're on themselves?

    • @MichaelsFishRoom
      @MichaelsFishRoom  Pƙed 2 lety +1

    On the topic of green beans, have you noticed any other fish eating green beans (in assuming your guppies are one)? It seems good but honestly I could never get into bristlenose plecos.

    thanks for your informative videos with great atmosphere
    and, question:
    why my females aren't ready to spawn?
    I'm feeding them:
    1. Zucchini
    2. Tropical Green Algae Wafer
    3. Ocean Nutrition's Tropical Wafer
    4. Biomar + Spirulina
    5. Baby Brine Shrimp
    6. Tropical Pro Defence
    Regular water charges
    pH around 7
    Temperature around 82
