Would a bristlenose eat newborn guppies?

Featured Replies

Well... would they?

Just seems a bit sus that I never had fry from my guppy trio, then a week after I take my bristlenose out, some fry appear :-? Small 35 L tank, just the guppies and BN were in there

But yay, baby guppies! All I ever hear is about how they don't stop breeding, and theres me sitting with no fry at all haha. So exciting for me 8)

Mine never eat fry (and haven't heard of any that do) but they'll eat any dead fry. How long has the BN been in there? If it wasn't longer than 6 weeks it may just be good timing when you took it out.

I have seen my bn chase baby new born guppies so i guess its possible maybe the saying is if they can fit in there mouth then yes?

If they can catch 'em, they will eat 'em I have seen mine going after brichardi fry , with success! Also they get them at night.

Cheers for the replys. Seems like she may have been the reason I had no fry. I am talking months without babies (guppies would get gravid spots etc but no fry)

Ah well, got 5 swimming around the bottom now :D
