Is Bogwood too hard for a Bristlenose to eat?

Nope, bogwood will work just fine. Not only do bristlenose catfish rasp away at it to add extra nutrients to their diet, they will hide in and around it. I wholeheartedly recommend adding bogwood to a BN's tank.



And when he gets to Heaven, to Saint Peter he will tell: "One more Marine reporting, Sir! I've served my time in Hell."

Bogwood has many pluses. 1- you can use it for bristlenoses to rasp on and 2- you can attach plants like java ferns and anubias( the bristlenose will enjoy plenty of plants in its tank.)
