Bistle nose plecos dont eat algae when they get their bristles. They cant. The bristles get in the way.

For reals??? What do they eat then?

algae wafers, flake food what ever the others eat. They are herbivors so blood worms they love

Bristlenose Plecos are herbivores, eating mainly algae, so feeding algae or spirulina wafers are best for feeding once or twice daily. Granules, flakes, or bloodworms are also good, while the occasional zucchini slices and blanched romaine lettuce or spinach are good treats.Mar 11, 2020
