Well finally after 2 or so years of courting my bristlenose have fry .
The male actually dug himself a cave under a rock and made his nesting site, even though i tried a few different caves for him he ignored them all!
A few days after laying the eggs he pushed out half of them into the tank and i thought it was all over but last night i saw about 40 fry swimming in the cave.
Hopefully now they can keep it up (the cave is slowly sinking into the tank substrate!!) and they will live!
