So I noticed a strange patch of coloring on my bristlenose today. I was wondering what you guys thought of it.

are you on about the greenish colour? if so that just looks like the dietary tract (big line of poop ready to emerge) only thing i could work out from your pic. If it is another part of the fish any chance you could try and explain where on the fish

Yep i agree. It just from the algea hes already ate. I use to have an albino pleco and I'd always see it bout the day after I gave him an algea waffer.

Ahh, I'm sorry, I should have explained better. I'm talking about the red streak on her fin. It's brighter than it looks in the picture, and its visible from both sides.

Lots of fish get these little bumps and scrapes, but on an albino, it shows much more clearly, so we notice them more easily. As long as the area doesn't develop any kind of secondary problems, as KcMopar said, and acts/eats as usual, should be good to go!
