About the Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Pleco

Name: Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Pleco

Recommend pH: 6.5-7.5

Recommended Temperature (Β°F): 72-82Β°F (22-28Β°C)

Diet: Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos are primarily herbivorous and should be provided with a varied diet. They enjoy grazing on algae growth in the aquarium, but it's important to supplement their diet with sinking algae wafers, vegetable-based pellets, and blanched vegetables like zucchini or spinach. They may also accept small portions of live or frozen foods such as bloodworms or brine shrimp.

Temperament: Peaceful

Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Non-Schooling Fish (Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos are solitary by nature and prefer to have their own territory. They can coexist with other peaceful community fish, but avoid overcrowding the tank.)

Possible types of tank mates: Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos are peaceful and can be kept with a variety of peaceful community fish. They are compatible with small tetras, rasboras, peaceful cichlids, and other catfish species. Avoid housing them with aggressive or fin-nipping species that may harass or stress them.

Behavior: Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos, scientifically known as Ancistrus sp. "Lemon Blue Eye," are a beautiful variant of the popular Bristlenose Pleco species. They have a distinctive lemon-yellow body coloration with striking blue eyes, creating an eye-catching contrast. These plecos also possess the characteristic bristles on their snout, which are more prominent in males. The bristles serve a sensory function and are used for territorial and breeding displays. Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos are primarily nocturnal, spending much of their time hiding in caves, crevices, or amongst driftwood. They are excellent algae eaters and are often added to aquariums to help control algae growth. Despite their small size, they can have a big impact on the aesthetics and maintenance of the tank.

Fun Fact: The Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Pleco is a relatively new and sought-after variant within the Bristlenose Pleco family. It is a selectively bred form, carefully developed to enhance its vibrant lemon-yellow coloration and striking blue eyes. The blue eyes of these plecos are particularly captivating and can provide a stunning focal point in the aquarium. Interestingly, the intensity of the blue eye color can vary among individuals and may be influenced by factors such as water conditions and genetics. Lemon Blue Eye Bristlenose Plecos are not only admired for their beauty but also valued for their algae-eating abilities and their contribution to maintaining a clean and healthy aquarium. Their peaceful temperament and unique appearance make them a prized addition to aquarists' collections, especially for those looking to add a touch of color and elegance to their aquatic landscapes.

Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) I’ve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

Wonderful shop with lots of variety. Has the most unique selection of fish on the island, and at a reasonable price! Staff is friendly and very helpful when we have questions or concerns. Love coming here and seeing the jokes around the store. Also, Vinnie!

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
