I picked up a BN the other day, but when I got him home I realized his Dorsal and tail fins where much large than my other BN, more like a sail. Is there a sailfin bristlenose and are they worth more than a regular?

There are longfin Ancistrus plecs, I've seen them around. They're usually a little more expensive than the average BN, because they are a little harder to find. As for how much they're worth, well, that depends on how much you're willing to pay. I personally prefer the "normal" BN, but you might be crazy for the long-finned fellas, and willing to pay more.

Thanks Sirbooks, I actually got this guy from my LCFS (Local Chain Fish Store) for $2 USD because they fiqured it was a common. I go in there once in a while to save fish.

I didn't even realize he was a Sailfin until I got him home and compared him to my other one.
