Ancistrus growing up

Post by KarthikC »

Hello everyone.

Wanted to share a pic of my ancistrus and a few questions on him/her.

There's another smaller Ancistrus in the same tank, the bigger one appears to be chasing it around. Also, the growth rate of these two have been phenomenal. The bigger one (which is the older one) has grown almost twice the size it was when I first got it. Is this normal? An yeah, they've polished almost all the driftwood.

Here's a picture of the tank they're in:

Cheers,
