A few more photos - New Oto

[KeddyPie]

Ok, my 20 gallon is officially stocked. Maybe a little overstocked, but the betta will be rehomed soon, and the oto might possibly as well (depending on what sized tank the betta is rehomed to)

I brought home 3 more bloodfins and the little Oto (named Mr. O after my networking teacher). Mr. O was the only oto in the 15 gallon heavily planted tank with a large sum of rummynose tetra's, he is tiny (less than an inch long) and he is FAST. It was very amusing trying to watch the store keeper catch him ^^

He's soooo tiny!

Next to my 3.5 inch Dojo loach

In the oto-photo process, I knocked over my baby boys' can of treats. Knowing the sound of their treat can, they both leapt out of bed and were impatiently waiting for treats.

My bloodfins have all bonded and are schooling together. There are 7 of them, but I seem to only get pictures of 5

Ok, I'm done with photos for the moment ^^ Maybe some more when I move the betta to his own tank.

Awesome pics!

Love the dojo.

Lovely pics. Perhaps you could get some more otots. The little chaps do best in shoals of at least 4 or 5.

Very little chance. I only buy fish from one place, as we only have 2 local stores, and I do NOT support major chains. Neither of the local stores regularly stock them, and he was all alone. If I see them in my favorite local store again, I might purchase one or 2 more. My tank can't hold more than that, it's already stocked. I would have gotten 2 if there WERE 2, though ^^

He does like to follow the loaches around. He thinks they are just very loooooong oto's.
