Hi everyone,

How big a chance would the average oto have surviving if it was in the same tank as a 4-5 inch dorad?

I've got a full grown (three inch) anadorus grypus and a three inch platydoras in one tank and four one inch astrodoras asterifrons in with a two inch agamyxis pectifrons.

Well Andy they sounds pretty safe to me unless the Otos are absolutely tiny (like 1cm). Talking cats aren't exactly what anyone would call efficient predators...unless you're a snail..
Enjoy!
