kiwiplymouth Posted June 3, 2009 Report Share Posted June 3, 2009 Thanks to Blue and Kim I now have a proven pair of L182 Starlight bristlenose. They only arrived today but seem to have settled in well. Dad has even picked his cave and started fanning. Here's hoping that it's a sign of things to come Yes Livingart these guys have got whitespot too :lol: female Male Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing at around 14-15cm. The male has a great set of branched bristles that would rival the best that i have seen. I will try to get a pick when he lets me. Good luck with your juvi pair they are great fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Us southerners (including our fish) are a bit harder than our north island cousins. Kenny G is banned down this way.
