PostSubject: Hello from Texas!   Wed Jun 01, 2011 10:08 pm

Hello everybody.
I got my first pair of common bristle nose about two years ago. Unfortunately a year ago we had a house fire and I lost the female. So my male has been by himself in a 37 until today when a splurged on a beautiful long finned albino female.
I also have a male Calico in a different tank.
I'm really hoping to breed the albino and common bristle nose, and my male common seems to like that idea since he definitely took notice of the new female the second she was released into the tank!
Anyway, hello from Texas and I look forward to getting advise and spending time on the forum. Smile

There are a few that show her (I think) gravid belly in the breeding section, but i'll take some more tomorrow. I don't want to try and take pictures with flash while it's night time in their tank Laughing
