Re: [APD] Plant safe algae eaters.



I put a half dozen otos in a 30g and they seemed to disappear, so I added some more. And later some more but never saw more than one or two -- until I tore down the tank and found all of them, aliave and well.

My oto's disappeared pretty fast in a tank that never once lost any 
other fish to disease. I don't know what the proper care for them is, 
but I'm reluctant to keep them again without knowing that I won't just 
be starving them to death.
