Baby Bristlenoses

Extreme cuteness. Could you house those with goldfish?

If you kept goldfish at the upper end of their temperature requirements, and bristlenose at the lower end of theirs, then just about- they need water 22 degrees or higher according to Planwet Catfish- I usually aim for about 24, which would be the upper limit for goldfish. I know of people who've kept plecs with subtropical and temperate species but I've never seen bristlenose with temperate species so I'm not sure if there'd be any problems.
 
that is a handful! so are bristlenoses the guppies of plecos?

Yup pretty much- just add water (and a cave for the male to look after the eggs/babies for about a fortnight).
 
An almost impossible picture of family harmony!
