Looks like a nice young male by the bristles on the nose. A cave and a bit of bog wood will go down nicely. Feed him some fresh veg, algae wafers and you will have a very nice happy BN for years to come.

Well I've bred the 3 strains of cirrhosus. The pie bald, albino and the normal strain. It didt look anything like these guys when I first got them. Kept that fish for 3 years already and gotten it when it was 3" which by then the bristle would have been bushy instead of a few strand.

Anyway I will get a better pic when I'm back.
