I love these little cat fish, but can't seem to keep them all alive! I have 3 in my 20 gallon tank which also contain neon yellow shrimp, Amano shrimp, and nerite snails. It is a planted tank with a large 2 sided sponge filter. All of the inhabitants are doing well, but every time the I add #4 otocinclus, 3 days later I find one dead in the tank. All of my water parameters are good and do a partial water change of approx. 20% every other week, religiously, but I can't seem to maintain 4 of them in my tank! I provide supplemental food such as a small piece of Tetra Algae wafers in a feeding dish, daily. HELP!!! What am I doing wrong???
