id my new plecos (PICS)
alright just bought these 2 new plecos for my 29 gallon planted from petsmart. they were sold to me as bristle/bushynose plecos, and im just making sure that thats what they are since they have no bristles yet... i figured since they were babys it might just take a while to develop them?? anways let me know if you guys think these actually are bn's

Re: id my new plecos (PICS)
Odd...I have seen baby bristle nose plecos in the stores and all of them at least a hint of bristles on their noses. I have a albino bristle nose, it's about 4 inches and it's bristles are there, pretty big too.

Re: id my new plecos (PICS)
These look pretty young, and they don't usually start getting bristles till about 8 months. 4 inch is usually considered and adult.
