Stunning in planted tanks
Peaceful community fish
Snow White Bristlenose Plecos (Ancistrus sp. (Snow White)) are selectively bred bristlenose plecos known for their snow-white coloration. Adults usually reach about 4–5 inches and spend much of their time grazing surfaces and resting under cover.
They are peaceful community fish but still need direct feeding, adequate space, and a cave or shelter.
Care Notes
Provide a cave or shelter and a varied diet. Their pale color contrasts strongly against dark substrate and wood.
Plan for a 4–5 inch adult even when purchasing a small juvenile.
