Fish Fanatic
The local PetSmart had a tank of healthy looking otocinclus, so after three weeks, I bought one to deal with the algae in my new tank.
Little Mitty hangs out during the day and works on the algae at night -- he's doing a bang-up job and seems to be adjusting well. He's cleaned most of the glass and has started working on the rocks, so I bought sinking algae tablets to feed him when he was done.
I read somewhere that otos like soft food, so I dropped a tablet in around noon today to give it time to soften by dinner time. Imagine my surprise when my betta dive-bombed it to break it up and mostly polished it off!
So -- I've bought some zucchini to try on Mitty tomorrow. Assuming that Beta doesn't develop a rasping technique can Mitty survive on zucchini alone?
