Super Red Bristlenose Pleco Pair Guaranteed male and female! 12 to 14 month old fish About My Fish - Parent fish are unrelated and a mature pair (Male is 6"+). I originally purchased them as my algae team for my planted aquariums.
- Plecos are 12-14 months old and sexually mature but are not yet proven breeders. I do have siblings from this group that are already breeding. Provided with the right conditions and they can start breeding in 3-4 months or sooner
- Guaranteed pair - I don't mix too many different ages of super reds in my grow-out tanks. This ensures that I can reliably determine the age of my fish. You won't get sleeper males from my pairs.
- Males are 2.5" to 3"+ and females are 2" to 2.5" in size. My policy is to sell and ship the biggest fish first! Please also look at my photo on how I determine my females.
