Hi there, I've had 3 otto's keeping my betta company for about a week now. They did an amazing job clearing the tank of brown algae, plants and glass look like new! But I'm worried that there isn't now anough algae to support them and I've been trying other options, for long term feeding. So far, I've tried both cucumber and courgette, I left them both in the tank for about 12 hours, and they weren't touched by the ottos. I got particularly concerned about the courgette as I left it overnight, and this morning it'd made the water a bit cloudy.

Any Ideas? What does everyone else feed their ottos regularly?
 
I've had mine for years and i have never ever seen them even remotely intrusted in any kind of flake,pellet,waffer,or veggie of any kind.I was under the impression that they don't eat anything besides algae.
 
i quess it just depends on the individual fish or mybe what they have been brought up on if u like haha
