⭐ Starlight Bristlenose Pleco (Ancistrus sp., L183)
White Spots • White Seams • Peaceful
 
📋 The Starlight Bristlenose Pleco (Ancistrus sp. L183) is a beautiful aquarium pleco, named for its dark black body covered in tiny white spots resembling stars in the night sky. Its other common name, the White Seam Pleco, comes from the distinct white edging along its dorsal and caudal fins.
Like other bristlenose plecos, males develop snout bristles, making them easy to identify. This pleco is smaller, hardy, and peaceful, making it a great choice for community aquariums. It is a good algae grazer but does best with supplemental plant-based foods.
