ashleynicole said:I disagree. oto's will eat cucumber and zuccini. Mine seem to prefer cucumber. Also mine eat the hikari sinking algae wafers. I buy the mini ones and of course all the fish go after them but I've seen my oto's on them as well.
I do agree to make sure the cycle is complete before adding the oto's.

ashleynicole said:Also I will mention that the only brand of algae wafers I buy are the hikari. I've tried a few others but my bottom feeders go nuts over the hikari in particular.
Hiker is pretty good. They boast on the bag that it is the number one used plecostamus food worldwide. I don't care if it is or not, but I just feed one or two to my cories for good protein supplementation.
