Calico marbled bristlenose have a patchy, mottled pattern of dark and light colouring that varies from fish to fish, making each one unique. They are the same dependable algae eater as other bristlenose varieties but with a more interesting, varied appearance. No two calicos look exactly the same, which is part of their appeal.
