I have a 3 foot tank with:

6x glowlight tetras

5x neon tetras

2x dwarf gourami

1x yellow algae eater

Looking at getting baby bristlenose catfish however im unsure how many i need or how many is too many.. Im thinking 2 or maybe 3 of them

note i have on order a siamese algae eater from animates but i dont know how long that will take to get a real one in...

Im wanting it purely for algae eating as my yellow algae eater doesnt seem to eat much.... doesnt take long for the glass to have a layer of algae and currently the plants have quite a bit on them too

The light is on from 4:30pm through to 4:30am and the tank is not in any direct sunlight

On a different subject... Went to a place in lower hutt (wellington) called hutt pet place i think (by mitre 10 ). THe place is quite big and chocka block, However thier fish section was closed off for some reason

Does anyone know why?

and has anyone had much experience buying from them?

I would go for a male and female b/nose which will probably result in eggs at some stage, pity you wern't in Auckland as i have heaps of fry to give away.

Hi,

Do you still have the bristlenose fry? Im keen to get a few off you if u don't mind.

Hi Snowman when do you feed your bristlenose?
