That Chocolate Zebra looks awesome, are they as expensive/hard to breed and find as their normal cousins?

Have you ever seen any starlight bristlenoses'?

I have a trio in my Anubis tank. They are very striking.

Tere is this one which is also very nice:

I've had these in some tanks, very nice fish.

But these are different.


I've got 5 of Chocolate zebras in my tanks and also in a client's:

these do very well in planted tanks.

I'm not sure what this guy is, his markings are different and the form and behavior are as well.

Some of the larger species I have in a client's tank, they are 3-4 years old now and some are very dramatic.

I do not want them that large in my tanks, so I have chosen smaller species and likely need more caves in the back for them. I'll make a nice holey wood cave back in the rear of the tank to accommodate more hotels for them.

If they do not have a nice hiding spot of their own, it is very stressful on them.

Tom Barr
