2 common and albino By natural I meant exist in the wild as a distinct variety. I have seen some photos of a green variation as well as Albino & Common Brownish. | |

| there are several different species of ancistrus.
Of the specific species we know as the common bristlenose all of the colour morphs apart from common brown and albino have been either bred in or crossed in. | |
