Overview
The Peppermint Bristlenose is a highly prized, premium native-bred favorite that commands top-tier retail prices across Australia. Looking completely spectacular, their velvety jet-black bodies are covered in a dense starscape of tiny, brilliant snow-white spots. When young, they also feature a striking, crisp white border along the edges of their tail and dorsal fins. They are highly sought after by advanced hobbyists and breeders looking for a dramatic, luxury centerpiece catfish that effortlessly keeps tanks completely free of green spot algae.
