Ancistrus claro (Gold marble bristlenose)

Anyone got any of these..??

If so what are they like to keep..?? Do they come out during the day or only at night..??

I quite fancy getting a couple as I hear that they only grow to just under 3 inches and are very peaceful.

Also any idea at what sort of price they are...??

Just simply love the Claro....even the name sounds buetyfull...

And yeh they are quite small compared to the rest and due to being peacefull require slightly more patience for spawning as well as being in a smaller community....

Price...I would pay between £10 and £15 for a mature Claro......

And Jo from RareAquatics gets these in a bit......check her list in the trade section she may have some in....

Not sure if it's right to drag out an old thread like this but..

I've got three of these, still young though. They are active during the day but mostly show themselves in the first and last 2 hours of light.

You guys are lucky to have these. It's much harder to find them here in the states.
