Hi everyone,
Just wondered if people could share their opinions/personal experience with regards to keeping Longfin and Peppermint bristlenoses in the same tank? My tank is ample size and has more than enough caves for the males but I am unsure as to how the two species will do together. Have researched a bit on the internet and some people go as far to say that the two can breed together but we all know what that internet is like in terms of conflicting opinions and false info :P so any contribution to this subject would be really appreciated as I would be very keen to have these two species together as long as there will be no problems.
 

Thanks,
Cojakk

I have had mine together for quite some time and have had no problems what so ever, however once all of my pepps are mature I am going to divide the tank to minimise the amount of fry from both parties getting eaten.

Thanks

Do they eat each other's fry?

Not that I have noticed, I just want to minimise the risk of it happening as I noticed my albinos eat albino fry.
