L-144 Bushynose Pleco

Bushynose plecos are found all over the Amazon basin and are good tankmates as they eat algae and scavenge uneaten food and only grow to five inches in the fish tank. Though these are plentiful and affordable plecos, they have a very unique appearance. Also called bristlenose plecos for the antler like growths at the top of their nose that get larger and larger as the fish ages.
