Longfin Super Red Bristlenose Pleco Breeding

[@sewerpipecasso8750]

Bought some plecos from you last year. Top notch stock. Thank you

[@FoisyAquatics]

Glad you like them!

[@sandydimond3363]

Thank you for this. My L340 breeding colony is very successful and will soon be getting a colony on super red long fin Ancistrus. You're video is perfect information i needed

[@FoisyAquatics]

Glad I could help!

[@mikeyhle]

Hi.. thank you for sharing this video. What do you feed them to trigger them spawned regularly? Much appreciated. Thanks.

[@giftofthewild6665]

I love how yellow / orange the wigglers are! I've bred kribs before and their wigglers were transparent / Gray and really hard to see against the substrate (harder for predators to see I guess). BN wigglers are so cute!

[@FoisyAquatics]

Agreed!

[@chandlee3968]

I’ve read from another breeder that using one parent as a long fin and one a short fin produces hardier and quicker growing fry. Have you experienced a lengthened timeframe in maturation when using long fin for both parents. I have only bred using the mixed short/long fin method in albinos and regular bristlenose and they do well, just wondering about your experience as I’ve just acquired 4 long fin red fry for my breeding project.

[@FoisyAquatics]

I've done both but honestly never noticed a difference in fry growth rate or fatality rate. I think the amount of feeding and water quality are the biggest factors

[@EastCoastPGS]

Yes you are correct. A shortfin x longfin cross will produce more vigorous fry. A double dose of the longfin gene (i.e both parents longfin) will produce 25% smaller, less vigorous fry than a single dose of longfin gene. In essence double dose longfin parents will produce 25% shortfin, 50% single dose longfin, and 25% double dose longfin which those will be the weaker smaller fy that eventually will not be able to produce well. You can breed both longfin parents but you would have to sort out the weaker smaller double dose fry. I have been breeding bristlenose plecos for 20 years and was one of the first to have super red plecos imported from Germany, which I still have the original line today. We then created the longfin line of super red plecos by crossing a leucistic albino longfin female to a male shortfin super red. Which eventually produced what you see in this video. -Jay

Beautiful!! Wow !! That is a lot of eggs!!

[@FoisyAquatics]

Yes it was!

[@valleylakefishroom8825]

Hey Man, I loved the video and especially the fish! I was wondering if I could do a series similar to you about documenting how the fry grow up and stuff🙂 Hope you have a great day!

[@FoisyAquatics]

Thanks! I'm still fine-tuning my fry growing process but I may do a video on it in the near future

[@giftofthewild6665]

How about lemon bristlenose? I really like the blue eyes so thinking of getting a pair of lemons. Do they sell well? Does anyone know what would happen if a lemon and a super red is bred together? Do you get a mix of both colours in the fry or is one colour dominant over the other?

[@fishiemon64]

I got the cave today thank you. i really want some super reds 😍

[@JORGELDELAPAZ]

Great video, beautiful fish.

Hi I was wondering what breeding box you use ?

[@FoisyAquatics]

The cheap guppy boxes from Petco!

[@maxlabt]

Please tell me what food you feed Ancistrus fry up to the age of 1 month?

[@edmundkare5562]

What color are the fry suppose to be for the super reds? I have a clutch of super red/albino?

[@savethefinz7381]

Thanks

[@sonray8]

Do you still have a laser pointer review channel?

[@supermiddy]

I'm getting a pair to breed very soon. Is a breeder box and a grow out tank necessary?

[@FoisyAquatics]

No but it does help keep the fry in one place if you need to move them to another tank

[@shanefuruta3425]

[@dakotalivengood3195]

Hey man I’m trying so hard to find a breeding pair of these is there any chance you would have some.

[@FoisyAquatics]

Unfortunately not, I actually sold these a little while back

[@jackiehanson3491]

How much do you get for a trio? Long fin

[@STEPHENDP74]

I just lost my breeding male. I was wondering do yours always breed with longfins? Mine spawned about seven times it more. I noticed some were longfin some were not.

[@FoisyAquatics]

My longfin pair throw about 75% longfin fry and 25% shortfin fry

[@tvMixOmarsadiqurl]
