| My males only 8cms and my two females are 10cms & 12cms, it's never been a problem for him Your female will be mature enough to breed at 5-6cm, long before she is full size. My male first bred when he was 5cm and his bristles had not developed. I recommend Doug's Bristlenose article - http://store.payloadz.com/details/817917-eBooks-Pets-Bristlenose-Catfish-Article.html It contains all you need to know about breeding the bristlenose and much more all for the bargain price of $4. | |

| Cheers for the plug Jim The article does go through this sort of stuff but in short, no it wont matter. once she is mature she will start hanging around the boys, you know, as young impressionalble girls do, and we all know how that ends up....SHABANGABANG!! | |
