Bristle nose plec ancistrus wanted

Hi everyone.
I cannot get a b nose plec in Cork. They just don't stock them and have tried shops over last month but they never have them. Doors anyone have them to sell in the Cork area. Thanks
Brian

howdy,

I have many many juvies here which I am attempting to catch to move them on. I can give you a couple if you can collect from Limerick (city).

i regularly bring my offspring in to the north main street pet shop in cork city, i dropped in Biotodoma cupido, 2 species of ancistrus and some apistogramma only a week ago

Thank you guys.
I will be going up to Limerick in the next few weeks so if its ok Baan I will message you in mid december to pick up them from you.
Many Thanks
Brian

Also in the meantime I might just try north main street just in case they still have them as it would it safe a long drive to Limerick as I'm here in west cork

Thanks guys.
Cheers
Brian

sure if you are in west cork give me a shout i am only a mile or so from bandon, you are welcome to a bristle nosed plec, just let me know how big your tank is as i have a number of species that grow to different sizes

ok, sounds like you are sorted, but if not, drop me a pm when you know when you'll be in Limerick.

Offer open to others also... I have a lot of the little guys and they need to start leaving soon, but catching them is a pain!

Thanks all,
Very much appreciated.
I will call you to you so Joe if you don't mind. I have a small 54l tank so the smaller the better I guess. I am treating ich at the moment in my tank so will contact you if that is ok in a weeks time. I bought a platy recently and the ich must have come in, so will clear that out of tank first before I call. I will pm you in about a week once I am clear of whitespot
Thanks Baan also for the offer, very much appreciated also.


Again Thanks to everyone as I was looking everywhere for them.
Cheers
Brian

no prob, anytime, there are always a good few here, i reckon Ancistrus triradiatus would be the best one i have for that sized tank, they max out at about 4 and a half inches i will keep a pair aside for you.

Sorry for jumping in here I am currently looking for some pleco species for my trigon 190 baan could you send me a pm on what you have as I'm regularly down that way location is not a problem cheers paul

flying visit again this evening tetras, hope it settles in for you, if you decide to take a female just let me know and i will net one out for you for the next time you are passing
cheers

Hi Joe,
Thank you very much.
The bristlenose pleco is doing really well in the tank since the move.
I always know that any fish you have is always a healthy specimen and locally grown unlike the fish you get in mass produced fish shops.

The pleco you gave me is cleaning away the algae off my tank and is doing very well.
Sorry I couldn't stay long, was doing the Christmas shop in Cork and then had to get back home to meet babysitter.

It's all go, The fishkeeping hobby is great to get away from the stress of things


Thanks again Joe,

Hi Joe

Would you have anything suitable?

Great thanks Joe
