Otos Or Amano Shrimp

[Dorkhedeos]

Well, I havent scraped the side of my tank in about a month and a half because my algae problems were kept in check after the 3 amano shrimp and 3 otos I added. The thing is, a few days ago, I added 2 dwarf platies and 2 guppies, and a featherfin rainbow to the stock. The algae is slowing starting to creep up on me again. I am thinking about getting either 2 more otos or 2 more amano shrimp. Which one do you think will do a better job?

Well the oto's may appreciate some more buddies, they like to be in groups, plus you could also do more shrimp, they dont add much to the bio load

Shrimps wont touch algea that grows up the side of the tank so i would say some more Otos!

All depends on the type of algae Oto's are fussy, amano will eat anything
