Yup, chances are you're gonna get a few batches of browns if they carry those genes. But browns are cool too, so don't worry
yeah but how come 40 out of 45 are brown? that shouldn't be possible.......my male is definitely pure as i saw its parents which were also both ABNs except were being sold as a breeding pair for $30..........at petco! someone brought them in.........im sure......because u don't get such intense coloring without the L???(forgot which one) and an albino........the female might have BN parents.......but still shouldn't have.....Not all as the parents are albino but a mix of both until the brown gene is bred out, will you most likely get all albinos.
what do u mean?Yeah one or both might be carrying the regular bn gene. I would start leaving a slice of cucumber for food as soon as the yolk disappears. Also cover any air tubes since bn babies get everywhere and sometimes get stuck. What kind of filte you running there?

okay, so that means, i could get all of them brown? it really doesn't matter to me but i like the looks of ABNs better as they are easier to spot as they stand outYou should know they are true browns when they get older. Only way you are going to know as they are still young. If you know most of the plecos' lineage, it will be best to tell which colors. Just because the parents are both albino, doesn't mean most should be as maybe both parents are carrying the brown gene.
k, now it makes sense i have never used a sponge filter in my life......idk how it works......i've heard u can make it just out of an aerator and a sponge.....but idk how.Airstone is fine. I mention it if you had one of those sponge filters that have an output tube for the air bubbles. Bns always get into places like that and sometimes get stuck. When my albino long fins breed I get 75% albino long fins and 25% alibino regular fins. I obtain a pair of reg bns from a friend that has 75% regular and 25% albino. Now I breed the regular with my long fin albinos and get 75% albino and 25% regulars. And out of those its like 50% long fins.
Those look awfully young to ship.the babies look kind of like this, a bit lighter
