Hi all!
I have recently moved house and while removing ornaments and driftwood I unearthed some bristlenose fry which were swiftly gobbled up I didn't even know they were breeding, or that I had the right conditions in my tank (including males and females!) after catching all the fish i tried to examine the BN as best I could and think I have 1 male and 3 females. They are all small in terms of adult size but the male is the biggest at about 4 inches maybe. I was just curious as to wether they may spawn again? I actually got 2 of them (male & female) off a friend who's had them for ages and they never spawned before. Also the females are small (1 is about an inch the others maybe 3) I didn't think they would produce eggs at such a size!
Any insight would be appreciated, thanks!
