Just a thought, these fish sell for $400 to $500 each at 4 to 5cm here in Australia, what do they sell for in the other countries?

Hey all,
I've seen a few pictures of these and they look very interesting.
I've read somewhere they are probably a colour sport produced by crossing albino bristlenose back with the wild colour form.

Has anyone here been lucky enough to witness offspring that are piebald, from parents which ...

AHHHHH! Those are some impressive pictures. I love the first pic.
What sought of material are those caves made out of??

Hey Barbie,
Sorry that I left out that piece of vital information, but the 4 mothns prior to these 9 X 4-7cm being put into the tank, there were 7 X 12-15cm Ancistrus (L043) in there that were breeding. There is no other fish with the Peckoltia. To my understanding the tank was fully cycled, as ...

Sorry Barbie,

Hello all,
About 10 days ago I aquired some Peckoltia. These Peckoltia have been housed in a 4ft*18"*18" tank with a filtration system pumping 1400 l/h. Until now they have looked fine and there has been no problem at all. Today I notice that the smallest one (approximately 4cm) looks as thought it ...

WOW! They are beautiful. What sought filtration do you have in the tank for a catty like that?

Hey barbie,
What do you mean by this?

They're on their 2nd day of rains now

Hey all,
I know that it can be a little risky as it can transfer "nasties" into your tank, but try live blackworms, they love them.

tedd47,
Just curious, how are you sporning you multipunctatas?

Has anyone had any success in spawning these?

Or know of any good articles on their spawning?

To my knowledge the "common" bristlenose in Australia are A. temminckii.

Hello,
Does anyone know at what size these beautiful catfish start breeding?

Hello Ikan,
I feed mine with Pumpkin, Celery and zuchinni. Try just about any fresh vegetables available, which should have heaps of nutrients and all the goodies that they need.
