shelties Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hi there, I bought from a shop a bristlenose that is spotted. I was told it wasn't a starlight but a galaxy. It is not a standard bristlenose, as it has the reddish brown on the end of the tail and is dark with spots over it, my question is can you get galaxy bristlenose catfish in NZ?

Squirt Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Is it a rio ucayali bristlenose? A google image search should help :thup: HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwiplymouth Posted October 8, 2011 Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 It sounds a bit like Ancistrus sp 'rio ucayali' aka spotted BN that have been in the country for a couple of years now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelties Posted October 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2011 Hi there, Looks like the one on trademe. The guy at the petshop said it wasn't a "rio ucayali" but it can't be anything else from the pictures I have looked at. It isn't a starlight as it doesn't have white on the end of the tail and there is no such thing as a galaxy bristlenose from what I have looked at on the net. Thanks for your help.
