Description

Britlenose Catfish are incredibly unique and fun creatures that are quite popular in freshwater tanks. These little critters are very easy to care for and can help improve the quality of the tank – useful algae eater.

Features of Bristlenose Catfish:

  • The bushy nose appendages that sprout from their snouts
  • Bristlenose Plecos have a mouth that’s located on the bottom of their bodies
  • Compared to other Plecos, the fish have somewhat elongated lips.
