| think this will be appropriate to Doug and is studying...
My male and female ancistrus teminkii have just bred and giving me about 40 young, of the 40 young there appears to be about 28 which are the normal brown with yellowish spots and then from what I can see I have found approximately 12 pure white bristlenose.
I am wondering if the white ones will just be albino, though I find this strange as the parents are both brown and have been no way nere any albino's in the two years I have had them... lol.... |
