Goosedub Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Hey Folks, I currently have an endler breeding tank. It is a 20L with and under gravel filter. It just has El Tigre Endlers and a pair of juvenile Super Red Bristlenose Plecos. It has a heater, but the Endlers don’t need a heater. I have read multiple places that Bristlenose Plecos can go relatively cold as well. Is this the case? I would love to take the heater out because I have several unheated fish varieties I want to try out and It is 1 less thing to cause complications. Is there a difference between super reds and stander BNs? Thanks, Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.K.Luterman Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 There's no difference. Super reds are just a color morph of the regular ol' guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosedub Posted May 6, 2021 Author Share Posted May 6, 2021 Cool, I am going to start lowering the temperature then until I can take the heater out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyjuliano Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I've had Pleco's in temps as low as 62 degrees! Very hardy, will acclimate to an incredibly wide temperature range. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
