I have a 6 year old Bushy Nose that isn't cleaning the tank too well
anymore. Sticks to his Zuchini and that's about it.

Can I have more then one Bushy Nose Cat in the tank?

A friend of mine breeds them and I asked him the same question, He said
there might be fighting with 2 males unless the tank is bigger and more
hiding spaces. But I didn't want to take a chance.

I have about half a dozen in a 110g tank. No problems.

Right the males have the bushy nose and the females don't , you have a
big tank, so you might want to add another. Or even a female!

I'm hoping at 6 years old a female won't give him a heart attack..

They clean better when smaller but ususally do a good job at any size.
I am breeding them by the hundreds, seems they do best as a colony. I
keep 3-4 males and 10-12 females in my 100 gallon tanks, that way
there are always females ready to lay eggs after I strip the babies
from the males' tube.
