Green Dragon Bushynose - 2-3" Unsexed. Remarks : Green dragon bushynose plecos are an uncommon and newer color variant of the ever popular common bushynose pleco. Rather than the typical dark brown, they tend to have a more olive coloration that darkens with age. Some fish will get a white edge to their fins though it usually is only present when the fish is young. The green dragon variant was produced by Greg Sage from an oddball pair of bushynose plecos he received after they had changed hands multiple times. This has caused it to be unknown and unsure as to whether hybridization or selective breeding was used to produce the original pair. Bushynose, or bristlenose plecos, belong to the genus Ancistrus but their exact species is unknown. The common bushynose plecos you see available today are likely line-bred from A. cirrhosu.
