hi all,anyone know the best food for conditioning bristlenoses prior to breeding thank you |

They dont need much conditioning, they just need to be the right size, give them a cave and wait for the female to fatten with eggs, you can feed them on cucumber or pellet foods, bloodworm is good too. |

thank you,i put white worm in aswell but they were not touched a will get some bloodworm tomorrow,i think the female is filling up anyway thats why i have seperated them thank you |

my females breed at about an inch n half feed plenty of cucumber and then do a 50% water change and add just cold water.This will spur them to breed. oh and if u can put in a few large c0ckle shells they will breed in this better than a cave as he can sit in wait fr his woman to come spawn. good luck

it depends, ive known them to grow at such different speeds, normally theyll take atleast a year, and they need to be around 2inch + |
