I see my bristlenose all the time, but I have several in my tank. If you really want to watch them, stick a piece of zuchinni in there.

Yup my albino bristlenose pleco is fearless. He doesn't really care about things going on around him and goes about his own business munching on driftwood and the glass. The best is when I leave some new driftwood that floats, he loves to cling on to those pieces. However, I have noticed he only hangs out in certain parts of the tank where the hiding spots are close by.

He is also the only fish that isn't skittish even with loud sudden vibrations. I can walk up to the tank and he will keep going about his business, while other fish will swim away.

Zuchinni works really well too, but only if it's wedged close to a hiding spot.
