RE: [GSAS-Member] Albino Bristlenoses Update

["Drew Scott" <fish@dojodesign.com>]

One thing I've noticed with the bristlenoses is depending on the size of
the tank they're kept in they grow to different sizes. Most fish will
have stunted growth in small tanks but not always. But I put a baby
bristy in the 10gal in our dining room from a batch before the ones I
gave you guys. He's barely broken an inch long in 6 or 8 months. Looks
and acts healthy however but just a very interesting observation :)

Thanks Drew!

I put mine in two different tanks, I am sure the
warmer water felt good on them. Will watch them
tomorrow to see how they are doing. I laready have 1
pair in a 30 gallon long....but am thinking they are 2
males, for no babies yet, and have had them now for
about 2 years, and they both have bristles....So since
the ones I got from you do not have bristles and are
about the same size, am assuming they are female? So
may do some switching around over the weekend.

Thanks again!!!

Trish

Hope you enjoyed the meeting, and getting to meet a
few of us!
