Okay we'll im currently stocking up a 29 to:

6 Cherries
8 Pandas
2 Other Cories
12ish Neons
and 4 ottos BUT

i want a bristly nose =) instead of the 4 ottos..

Do you think that would work out okay, and if it would, i dunno really where to find a bristlenose as most my "LFS" are large large petstores other than one who i shall call tommorow and if they dont have it anyone know of a good (cheap too) place to get some online in southern (texas) US?? If the store has them ill take which ever variant they have but i think if they dont and i have to order him then i think i just might go on ahead and order a albino one or maybe even a perty veil one who knows =)

Thanks in advance

Yes, i think it would be Ok, but i would add a piece of Drift/Bogwood for him to chew on. I have an albino BN & most of the time, he stays on the internal filter.

Liveaquaria.com is pretty good. The prices are somewhat high but they have great customer service.

Thatpetplace.com has bristlenose plecs too, if you go to their live fish section.

Fish2u.com has a good selection.

Personally I don't like to buy fish online unless it's something I can't get elsewhere. What part of Texas are you in? You should have a store nearby which stocks these plecs, they tend to be quite common.
