Just wanted to say hello.
Stumbled across the forum whilst surfing and joined.
Have a 190 ltr Jewel Trigon, 6 Silver dollars (3 small and 3 even smaller!!) and a couple of small Angels.
Have a 30 ltr Biorb with 5 Black widow tetras and a small cold water tank.....
Looking to get some Bristlenose for the Trigon as I just love them.

| HMMMMMMM
fishy ones!!!!
I know nothing about them other than rough size, generally placid and great looking so not sure.
I suppose it will really depend what I can locate as I would like to at least have a chance of breeding them and I don't want to pay LFS prices (around £13 locally). I have looked on eBay but don't like the idea of posting fish (or not really knowing what I am buying!) and there don't seem to be any sellers in the south west of England!!
I really joined to get as much info as possible.
Thanks for you reply and interest. |

| I have tried Aquarist and found that all the Bristlenoses seem to be 'up North'
ALL the Adverts in Bristol, Bath, Gloucester and Wilts seem to be many months old.
I will keep trying though and WILL get some!! |
