| Hi guys. I just found this forum. Plecos have for a long time been my favourite aquarium fish. I have five Bristlenose Plecos in two 50 gallon tanks. Three are albinos. The albinos are just little, about an inch long. I just bought them a few days ago. They share their aquariums with (1) in the first 50-gallon: various black-skirt tetras, long- and short-finned: (2) second 50-gallon: black neons, neon and cardinal tetras, glow-light tetras and a few guppies. I'm hoping that at least one of the albino Pleco babies will turn out to be a female. The two that I have in the other 50-gallon are full grown and are standard colour...both males. Glad to find this forum on one of my favourite subjects.  | |
