I probably won't get any answers to this question seeing as my last oto question wasn't answered, but I'll go ahead and ask it anyway.
I have 3 otos in my 55 g and after they finished cleaning most of the brown algae I began to feed them blanched cucumbers and zucchini. All of 3 of them were heartily eating the vegetables everytime I put one in the tank on a clip. I would always see them hanging from the vegetable all together.
Last week I noticed only two of them and no matter how hard I looked I could not find the third one. A week went by and I thought he was dead. Yesterday, I spotted him and he seems to be doing fine. He doesn't appear to be ill or anything.
He still isn't eating with the other 2 oto's. He won't even hang out with them. The other 2 are always in plain sight, but this one I rarely see. I'm considering getting 3 more otos or so to make them feel more comfortable. Is there anything else I can do?
