    You give several choices for the males to choose. I’ve done that but also given only one choice, and had similar results. Have you tried one cave? And if so, What’s your experience been Jessie? Great vid

    Nice vid! I breed short-fin super reds and I have an old breeding pair of 5 years old. The key to getting more babies is having the female well fed 2 weeks before your expected breeding window (my pair breeds every 4-5 weeks). My pair's average spawn is around 80 babies. My biggest spawn was close to 130 babies. MY male is almost 6" and my female is 4.5" long. Also keeping the babies too long in the cave will be hard on a big clutch as the food inside the cave can go quickly if you have a huge clutch. I typically remove the babies 3 to 4 days after hatching and transfer them to a breeder box.

    very very helpful information. I am new to breeding ancistrus and learned a lot from your video. Upgrading my 20 gallon grow out tank to a 40 gallon and will keep on feeding lots of food, Also learned not to have swordtails in same tank as they eat all the food instead of the baby plecos.

    Great info! I’m just starting to breed my bristle nose for the first time, they are in a community tank with a lot of similar fish so these where great tips for me!

    Thank you thank you! For recommending the Organika!!! My bristlenoses are around 1 week old and have not ate anything for me. I tried zucchini, cucumber, bug bites and algae tabs. I knew I had to order on Amazon to get the Organika quick. They only had the 500mg available. I noticed yours was 300mg. Do you think it's okay to give them the 500mg? Also thanks for the helpful videos. This is the first time one of my fish ever had babies. I was a nervous Nelly!

    Loved the video, I haven't had any success getting my super red long-fin male to breed, im only using water spikes as caves and was wondering if you could link the cave that we saw in this video with the brown babies in it with the removable lid. Thank you:) PS, I should mention my shortfins breed with ease, thats why I think it may be cave size.

    When do you put the babies into the big tank from the breeder box?

  • @phamle5875

    Hi, my babies plecos got fungus (white pots) at second weeks. Could you tell me how to treat it? Thanks

    I have a top filter (Venus Aqua U6600). Do the babies possibly get into the inlet?
