Hi I have two red plecos. They had two sets of babies but they are all brown. Why?

I love the forest gump reference. So much so you got another sub. 🤘

Your opening sequence was awesome! Great information!

Congrats to the winners. It was very generous of you to this Ryan!

The red marks on the heads of the male albinos is used in much the same way as the bristles, they are used as another show of dominance and used to attract females

I just bought some beautiful plecos from you and I can’t wait until they get here!! So excited!!

Congratulations to the winners! I’ve had the very yellow Longfin albinos and they are gorgeous! Hot tip for long fins though - no plastic plants; their fins get caught in them and tear... or the fish gets stuck.

Great video as always, loads of information! Good job dude 👍

Great info my man! I have some super reds, albino and will put a few of these practices to use! thanks Ryan

Great info on bristlenose varieties. Thank you so much.

Thanks for the great info!!! Love your videos always make me laugh!! 😊

I’m not a bristlenose pleco fan, but this was fascinating to watch. I learned a lot today. Thanks Ryan. 👍🏻

Have you ever crossed the strains? What kind of colours are thrown if you cross blue eye lemons with super red?

😂😂 I don't know how I missed this video.. I loved it. Thank you for sharing your knowledge on this amazing little fish!

Best fish channel around, all around good info and well put together. My only ask-make more! 😀

What a good explanation 👏 I love the ancistrus

Great information Thanks for sharing.

Great video! I enjoy watching other people hard work line breeding

Really good information, thank you 👍

Just found ur channel. Amazing info! Thanks heaps subscribed from Australia 🇦🇺

Bubba! Cleverly done, love it!💜🎤💜

Thank you for all the info

Michaels Fish Room is a good place to buy Plecos. I have bought two and they are doing great.

Awesome vid! Only ever kept the blue eye lemons but definitely wanna get some calico and super reds! And them snowdrops 😲

Great video. I'd like to have a go at breeding some plecos and this was helpful to consider which variety and colors I'd like to consider. Loved the Bubba reference too, that was funny, he's one of my favorite movie characters of all time.

Thanks for the video and info

I recently got some sage line long fins and snow white long fins I'm growing out. Both very nice varieties. I have a ton of red calico long fins I've bred coming to maturity. Good video buddy.😁🐟🐟🐟🐟 I was going to post a picture for you but can't figure it out.

Great information!

Great video my friend. I have enjoyed many of yours. Subscribed!!! Take Care.

I took a gamble and bought a young male bristlenose super red pleco on eBay, I had no idea that the specimen I received is fantastic! It arrived yesterday 6-30-21 was in my tank with 2 females I’ve had for about 4 months, he wasn’t in the tank for even 3 hrs, and he’s fanning eggs as I type this. Amazing!!!!!!!!

Bruh I took the REAL gamble and got a couple unknown genders from a ma and pa shop hoping I’ll have the same experience 😅

Fantastic video, thanks. My plecos are just now reaching maturity.

Greg bred long fin albino into the green dragon project. Love your content on the plecos

Just got 4 calicos from you and they're absolutely gorgeous!

coolest video there :D and super nice bristle nose there "D

Liked cause of the bubba impression 👍🏽

Haha great video. Thanks for the help.

I literally subscribed within 10 seconds

Heyo, very nice video. You asked the question about the red dot on the Albino Brissle. I recently read that when a young male is ready to mate, it creates this red crown.

Knowledgable and entertaining.

Blue Phantom Petco is one of the coolest one

This is the greatest video opening ever

Great intro

Love my blue eye lemons

Love your videos you’ve truly inspired me I hope one day I can work with your strain of bristle nose

Congrats to winners I can't wait to get my lemon blue eye plecos from you also will probably get a bigger tank so I can get mr some of your marbled ones

Super red plecos ❤

The lemon blue eye is from linebreedin the reds! Hence sometimes the red ish mark on the head!!! Sometimes a redish tinge to the pectoral fin also! There are a few various types of albino genes! I've crossed a huge lemon blue eye with a normal, and they create the lemon drop, and some are long fin, totally georgous! I'm line breeding back to the lemon dad! Some have long fins longer than the body! I've grown mine to maturity as I want to pick the best for breeding! I had 100 in a 160L and maybe 60 in a 260L tank! Mostly males, I'd say 2/3 male! I was wondering if temperature was a factor in the ratio!?? I've a couple of vids on utube, not specific to pleco, but you may see some u like!?

Just a quick tip on those of super reds with the mud marks or also known as dirty reds, I have bred them with a calico female and the babies have came out as such amazing looking calicos so maybe look into breeding them with a calico

People used to want a LOT of money for super reds and blue eye lemons. Thankfully it has gotten more sane.

Ooooooo my calicos babies look like yours . Lucky there my favourite I have some crazy grey colours as well .

Hello! Thanks for the video, today I bought my first albino bristlenose pleco. At the moment, I think he is doing okay, but I saw some angelfish stalking him a bit. Hope he can find some secure place down some wood

Fun video,the last Aquatic Experience and I mean last I got a beautiful long fin calico from a vender.Boy was I happy showed my freind who was working there with LFS he loved it(pleco nut). Not ten minutes later he wanted too show to another employee and it had passed. Vender instantly gave me my money back so not bad mouthing him an other freind bought the last one his is doing great. Such is the world of Pleco’s.

My gold long fin breed with normal black bristlenose plecs and the colours are awesome

Bought a very young super red that more reddish brown- you think it will become red later? I have a near 3 year old albino Bristlenose and she's very yellow at 4"..nicely marked too.

Really enjoyed your video on plecos & would like to ask you what is the smallest species of brislenose plecos, please reply. Thanks

Hey! Love the channel 🔥! @1:45 you mention that "they can be stunted", can you elaborate, please?

Great video thank you I do wish you showed more calicos not just your (awesome) super red calico style. I’d like to know for sure that mine are calicos Btw my favorite is my long fins I have some amazing ones soooooo cooooool

my blue eyed lemon has the 2 white fin tips on the back tail, is this normal for lemons?

Aquatic Arts just had a sale on all their live things. 50% off everything live. Bought myself 24 kuhlis for $35. And 3 tank bred bristles for 6/pop :)

i have 2 light coloured brown common bristlenose plecos that have had fry, the fry are about 2cm long, 1/4 albino 1/4 common and 1/2 albino looking with black eyes and a couple have black spots, would these be calico ? or will they develop more color as they mature ?

Another great video. Love all the types of ancistrus . I have some albinos that are breeding true. I have a brown long-fin who carries the albino gene. When they are old enough, I want to breed him with an albino female. Still gonna be a while though.

Hi just asking what substrate do u use for ur plecs

Congratulations to the winners.

Tomorrow I’m gonna buy my first albino ancestrus , I always had the chocolate ones , I’m exited ,

Congrats salvo! I hope you enjoy it for a long time too come

My favourites are the calicos- both calico ( burnt orange & chocolate) & calico ( lemon & black) & the super red

Hi mate can I put together Madagascan Rainbow fish & Longfing Bristlenose? Also would they breed in the same tank & leave each others babies alone or would the rainbow eat the babies of Bristlenose?

The red patch ive found gets deeper when the they are ready to breed

Just wondering where I can advertise and sell my plecos, mystery snails and mollies? You have some very nice plecos, I have calico, father brown mother albino or red (not sure). He is just 6 months old and bread with his mother after father passed. They have been very entertaining and I love watching them. I also have another calico male (more brown than orange) but he is in a tank separate from other bristlenose. These new fry (I counted over 120 as they were hatching) are only 2 days old but already seem to be showing at least darker coloring on some and others are more see through. Do your male plecos leave the eggs in the cave? Mine have both kicked them out after 2 days, then the first one stayed with his first clutch but out in the rocks. Then once they hatched they mostly stayed by him for about 2 weeks. Every other clutch he kicked out and then didn't watch over them. They eventually turned to mold or something. This one tried to keep them close but kept moving them around the tank, just before they hatched he had gotten the clutch separated into 3 portions in different areas, so I finally put them together in a breader box in the tank where they began hatching in less than 2 hours! Now they are all over the tank, unlike the previous group. I had to move the mollies and the mother out of the tank because they were trying to eat them, the mother actually did get one, that I saw.

Omg, frickin hilarious!

Scored 4 long fin super reds locally for $10 each!! Great color, more orange then burnt orange, but still under 2 inches. I totally agree that 6 is is better, (hard to argue with math, lol!), but if these fail to pair, I'm happy to get a couple more and add genetics from another breeder.

is there anywhere you would recommend buying breeding pairs from

👍🏻 Actually I have some snow whites that are breeding atm. I bought 9 juveniles and I still have 8

Third These look cool

I got a a brown one from breeder and it is getting some light brown splotches

Hi mate I was wondering if you know could or know of anyone who can ship some green dragons LF,SF and snow whites LF, SF to Australia about 500 of each as I’m a breeder here and unfortunately only bristlenose (all variations are legal here in Australia) can be shipped here .

Love those snow whites

One day we will have dozens and dozens!

I bought an orange black one and now he is almost black ge got sooo dark. is that normal?

I have seen my super reds camouflage. When I went to a white colored substrate they camouflaged to almost a 24k colored pleco. They are now back to orange. Unless the fish was sick at some point…?!?

For a 1st time breeding project in a 10 or 20 gal what fish would you recommend?

Hello, can a full grown bristlenose female be bred or trapped by a 4 to 5 inches male ?

Watched my name go right by. Does anyone have a good source for green dragons that isn’t absurdly priced?

Do you sale and ship the BNP you are breeding?

The green Dragon is actually a hybrid of 3 different Ancistrus there not a line breed strain from the stand ancistrus cirrhosus cf. but the ancistrus cirrhosus cf long fin was used to work in the long fins to create the long fin green Dragon.

I Have bread an Albino longfinman with a L144 female. All were Chocolate :D

That darker spot on albinos is a common thing among albino creatures and is normal, just a spot of more pigmentation that is a trait of albino and leucistic animals

Every time I have bred two albino bristlenose together 100% of the fry are albino. When I've bred a longfin to a short fin it leans to about 80% being longfin, both in albino and super red.

From memory long fin is a dominant allele, probably the only one we are certain is. So if you do that cross you did you have a 25% chance of short finned fry, although there is always an element of chance with genetics. This only works if the long finned parent is heterozygous for long fin and short fin so it carries both alleles but where the long finned gene is present only that is expressed. If the parent was homozygous, both alleles were for long finned all fry would be long finned. This is assuming the gene isn't on the x chromosome.

Please i need help !!!!! I live in a small town in N.B. Canada we only have 1 petshop and has you can guess they do not have a toon of choices so i both the best baby pleco and it looks just like the Lemon something one of the first you spoke about ....... MY QUESTION IS ~> My pleco has a round month and does not have bristles !!! and they sell for 13.99$ CA !!!

My super red is getting almost white what’s going on ?

@Wild Fish Tanks I challenge you to line breed midget Bristlenose plecos. Why?...some of us are hardcore aquascapers and need a fish that won't displace our aquascapes/art. Otocinclus are too demanding and they are not hardy. However, if some one with your experience could design us midget calicos, green dragons he'd make a name for himself. I hope it's something you will consider.

im hoping i can get some snow whites some day.

I’ve got a baby long fin super red that is getting covered in black spots. I was worried it was black spot disease, but it sounds like he’s going more calico. Still love him, but frustrating to not get what was described.

I’m pretty sure they get that red spot when they are stressed I’ve notice mine gets that red spot when he is getting chased around the tank -and when he is calm he doesn’t have the red spot

I noticed that red spot when an angelfish was stalking him too, but it's my first day with a bristlenose pleco so i don't know very much

Calico bristlenose

I breed albino longfin to albino longfin and get 100% albino longfin
