Britlenose pleco sex for help

[george90165308]

is this a male or female britlenose pleco, it has bristles but very small, I have raised for over a year and its roughly 3 inches long

That looks like a male, it has quite a few bristles. Your profile says that you don't know the aquarium nitrogen cycle, I suggest you read up on that.

Yes, it is a male. He is still fairly young. As he ages the bristles will get longer and should also grow thicker. Some females grow tiny ones around their mouth but don't grow them up the center of their face.
