Bought this as a female bristlenose, and the owner said she was about 4months old, I would say she is more like about 8-14months old looking at her size of about 5 inches.

Some have said she looks like a blue ancistrus jari, however if you compare them they are nothing alike really...

She as blue around the eyes, and her fins and tail and body seem to have blue highlights in them...

Others have said she could be a BN cross with a blue ancistrus... what do you guys think...

kind regards

In the house of gee
Looks nothing like the "jari" that I have. Mine look slate grey with blue around the fins and bristles. They also have sky blue spots. Most days mine just look like L100

Common BN as in brown BN. Not "Common" as in Pterygoplichthys the ones that get huge.
