Calico Bristle Nose Pleco | Ancistrus sp.

Bristle nose plecos are one of the most commonly kept plecos for good reason! They stay relatively small and are fairly easy to keep. The calico coloration has beautiful marbling that will stand out in your tank! Plecos are commonly considered "cleaner" fish, and they defiantly will eat some types of algae! But these fascinating little creatures will need a supplemental diet of their own, They can eat a variety of sinking wafers, blanched vegetables, and even protein based foods (though veggie/algae based foods are their main diet). Minimum Tank Size 20 long - 30 gal Water Temp 72-82 Diet Omnivore Max Length 4-6" Current Size 1-2" Origin Locally Bred
