Bristlenose and common plec
We have had a thread concerning the possibility of a bn and a common can live together. Also so many statements that bns are usually 3 inches max so I thought I would post a couple of pics. The common is about 17 inches the bn is about 6 inches.

Re: Bristlenose and common plec
Just found this thread. Yes, I agree those are a couple of nice fish.
So far I've not seen any trouble between the common and the BN. Once when I was in the tank trying to catch another fish, the BN shot into the log/home of the common and stayed there maybe 5 minutes without the common getting aggressive. I have a 55g and as I said in my other posting, if my 11 inch common gets to 15 inches I'm going to give him to my nephew for one of his 150g tanks. When I mentioned that to him I could just see him thinking "alright". DLH |

Re: Bristlenose and common plec
Ive come to find most plecos will cohabitate together without ANY issues.
I just got rid of a 17" common, and currently keep 5 different dwarf species of pleco's in the same tank. |
