I've just discovered some tiny Bristlenose (Ancistrus dolichopterus) fry in
my tank, I didn't think there would ever be a chance of that happening as
the parents seemed not to get on, the female ran for cover every time she
spotted the male... perhaps she didn't run quick enough!
My local pet shop has had these breeding in their display tanks. Perhaps you
might like to give these a try.
