Albino Bristlenose Pleco

Bristlenose Pleco - Albino

The Albino Bristlenose Pleco is very popular in the aquarium hobby. Also known as an Albino Bushynose catfish for the appendages that sprout from their snout once they reach maturity. These fish are covered in boney plates and their mouths are on the bottom of their bodies which makes them excellent algae eaters! These fish are locally bred and are not imports. They are usually about 2 inches when shipped. They reach a max size of around 5 inches. 

Please Note: All fish shipments have a 100% Live Arrival Guarantee when shipping with Overnight (1 Day) option. All other options void our Live Arrival Guarantee for fish. 

The Albino Bristlenose Pleco that we sell makes an awesome addition to any community tank.  They are very docile fish that get along well with almost anything that you put in your tank. They also make for a nice cleaner fish as they love eating algae and combing thru substrate picking it clean of any debris or food residue left behind by other fish.  These fish are very hardy.

The scientific name for the Albino Bristlenose Pleco is Ancistrus sp.

We feed our Albino Bristlenose Pleco a mix of Northfin Veggie and Community. Their main food is Northfin Kelp Wafers and unsalted green beans.

Died on day 4

It was a very beautiful little fish, but did not do well in my tank. It was around 2” big and was not very active. By day 4, it died and appeared to have had bloat. I’m guessing it may have become stressed during shipping.

My Albino Bristlenose was perfect. His coloring is beautiful and he came very active. I've really fallen in love with this little guy.

Bristlenose Pleco - Albino

Arrived healthy - little guy is doing a great job cleaning up the tank! Still small, looks to be a little smaller then 2" but that's Ok, I'm very happy. This is my second shipment from Flip Aquatics and they do a great job with packaging and quick shipping. I highly recommend getting your fish from here...

Bristlenose !!

Received my albino Bristlenose in good condition, a little smaller than I thought but he is healthy and eating all the algae and cucumbers I have been giving him. He is happy in the community tank, I look forward to seeing him each day and to see what he/she grows into. Thank you.

Awesome

These two Albino pleco's are such an awesome addition to my aquarium. They arrived in perfect health and are doing fantastic. They tend to stay hidden a lot amongst the grass and drift wood. I can't wait to order more. I have been buying fish from this company for a while now and I've never had a single loss.. kudos to Flip aquatics

shy?

Maybe I live an anomaly, but the latest ancistrus I received hide during the day. My other Flip plecos (also Ancistrus) are out and working. It's not a complaint, just an observation.

Anyone considering a purchase from Rob's crew should rest assured that the stock they offer is first class (and they back up their product)

Smaller than expected, but showed up live.

I just got one of these and a regular bristlenose in today. The Albino was closer to 1 inch and the regular is at about 2 inches. Both seem to be doing well and look healthy.

Small, but darn cute

They were a little smaller than I expected, so I did put them in a different tank than initially planned, but that’s alright!
They are perfect!

Very healthy

The pleco is a beautiful color and came in looking very healthy and it is very active. It loves the wafers of food I bought it and love spending its time in the driftwood.

Albino bristle is missing

I am happy with my only bristle nose pleco that I see he’s exciting to watch and appears to be healthy, the super reds have not been seen in days.

So cute!

Over a month ago I ordered 2 plecos (10 other fish and 3 snails). They are all healthy and active.

Pleasantly Surprised

Since this was the first time I ever ordered a live fish online I was apprehensive - but the albino bristlenose pleco arrived healthy & hungry. I was also very impressed with the bright golden color - who know a pleco could be pretty!
