Anyone else’s bristle nose go down your sponge filter?

Hoppy replied to Hoppy's topic in General Discussion

She can’t go all the way in the filter. I was just wondering if it was normal behavior. I think she’s just an adrenaline junky.
Water Changes in a Bristlenose and Shrimp tank?

Hoppy replied to Yanni's topic in Fish Breeding

How many bristlenose do you have in there. I change about 5 gallons out of my 30 gallon every week or so as needed. I have about 2 dozen visible shrimp, 3 bristles, 3 mystery snails, and a small colony of endlers. Never had a problem. If the bristles don’t clean up left over food enough I recommend mystery snails they do good work of cleaning up bits.

She seems healthy and active however she seems to love climbing down the sponge filter tube. I’ve seen where some of the bristle noses live in pretty fast moving water. Anyone else have this going on?
