This one of the two survivors of the small BNs I recently bought. I am positive this BN has grown at least 5mm -1/4 ins in one week. Is this average growth rate?

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info

It is probably a male and whatever you are feeding him is helping him grow faster. Sometimes stock in a crowded breed tank get a whole new lease on life when they get a bigger tank and a doting carer to look after them.

I wouldn't say it necessarily has to be male, but I wouldn't doubt that growth rate if it's as healthy. Cute little bugger.

This is the fist time I've seen a white spotted bn.
What an awesome bn

Now I'm not sure, may try to get them instead of albino longfin bn's, I'll bet not so easy to find yet..

Sorry to hear you lost one of them. Are you going to get another so he has a friend ?

OH Keith!!! What an adorable BN! My BN is like that too! A spotted variety....I just took pix of him, today! Ill post them here, if you dont mind. My BN has red eye though, and you dont see the detail of his eyes....Anyway, i am glad to have these BN plecos, and i am definaetly going to try to breed them in my 30 gallon. These are just so cool!

Heres one picture of mine.

Heres one of him on the glass

Another

.......

yuppers

Last one!


EDIT: In my picture, the pleco might look like it has yellow spots, but it in fact has white spots! I am almost 100% sure that it is just like your variety! It even has your plecos white border on the tail and the top fin. I think this is called the starlight BN pleco. They look so beautiful, dont they?
