Jayba Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Ok, so here is the question. Would people prefer buying small 1 inch Pleco fry, for say 20 bucks each? Or prefer them grown out for a year or so, and pay 90 bucks for them? Myself being thrifty would go with the 1inch option and buy 3. Fry I have on the go right now are calico BN L-260 L-134 L-204 Let me know your thoughts. Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DragonNeko Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 I'd prefer to pay $20 for a 1''. I'm also thrifty, plus baby fish are cuter and it's nice to watch them grow up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vallisneria Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 I prefer the 20$ 1" as I like to grow them up myself and cheaper is better . The only time I buy larger fish is if there is a risk they might get eaten by tankmates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGuppyGirl Posted May 6, 2012 Report Share Posted May 6, 2012 Cheaper is better for myself as well, as I am constantly rearranging tanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyasa Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I would go for the 1" twenty dollar option too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvision Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 If I were to buy one of those, a small one would be fine; but, I think I'm kinda like you and enjoy buying mature fish a few at a time so I can build a breeding group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runningwild Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 I would say have both if you can as some people are looking for breeding stock while beginners are looking for cheap then you can't really go wrong if you have the room Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
83BULLDOG Posted January 30, 2013 Report Share Posted January 30, 2013 I like the $20 for 1 inch as I like to watch them grow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyfisher Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 While I do enjoy watching young fish grow & mature if like me and have my luck,so far out of five bristlenose purchased at three separate times all have turned out to be female go figure.
