Guys,

Do you think it is ok to place a bristlenose inside my discus breeding tank?

bristle nose cats are usually fine with discus although keep an eye on them as they mature...that seems to be when they sometimes get a taste for discus slim coating

if they become a problem just replace them with juvie bn

Don't put them in a tank with eggs or wrigglers still attached to the cone. They will eat them all overnight, and not even the most determined parents will be able to keep them away.

Once the fry begin free swimming, it will be fine.

Same thing with snails too. They will destroy eggs and wrigglers.
