Hey everyone, Like clockwork these bristlenose breed cave full after cave full. At first to speed up time between breeding I was removing the male and fry from the caves. Dividing the fry from the male will encourage a faster next spawn, which happened within 2 weeks. I found once we had 2 generations the sheer number of Fry we were raising was too many for the fry tank. Now we leave the 4-5 adult bristlenose together to breed as they like. Currently 2 of the caves are full of fry. Attachments:

Once they start they tend not to stop if water if favourable. The best thing about bristlenose you can always get rid of them to aquarium shops
