Title: Pleco fry ?
Post by: Jaws22 on December 06, 2013, 08:24:40 AM

I have some brown Calico Plecos, They have spawned and the fry are orange. Are these albinos or do they turn brown with age?

I got some red bristlenose fry from the Durkins when the club went there.  I wanted adults, but they didnt want to sell them.  So, I got some of the fry.  The color was nothing like what the adults were.  So, I took my chances on their recommendations.  I hope they turn out like the parents.

So, I guess what I am getting at is that they can change from what I am told.
