Brilliance Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 I'm thinking either Bolivian/GBR, Kribensis, or Apistogramma Cacutoides. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppysnail Posted October 24, 2021 Share Posted October 24, 2021 Just a heads up when released from the cave BN babies are the size of a juvenile neo shrimp. I threw in some vibra bites to give you a size reference. These guys were released earlier this week they have already increased their size by half. So anything that can eat a young juv shrimp can eat the babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevesFishTanks Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Its probably possible, depends on the fish and their attitudes. Bristlenose are pretty tough and they mostly stay guarded in a cave during the really vulnerable stages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I breed BN plecos and Kribs in a 36 gallon with no issue. Good to have a lot of cover/areas for the fish to go, but its definitely possible.

gardenman Posted October 26, 2021 Share Posted October 26, 2021 Stopping them from breeding will be more challenging. You will lose pleco fry to the cichlids though. Even with the densest cover some fry will expose themselves and get gulped. If you want to maximize the pleco fry output, you're better off raising them on their own.
