Hi everyone,

I have been directed here from the planted tank website of ukaps by one of your members darrel (dw1305).

I have a 60 litre planted tank with just two oto's in that have remarkably spawned and I now have 10+, 2 or 3 day old oto's swimming around. Here are a couple of pics of one of the babies and one of mum.
I have briefly boiled a cucumber and placed it in the area of the tank where most of the wrigglers are, together with some fragments of algae wafers. If anybody has any other information that could help me in growing these little fellas up I would be very grateful.

The tank only contains some dwarf rasboras, cherry shrimp and assassin snails so I dont think predation should be a problem. The rasboras have shown no sign of trying to grab one for lunch. I do diffuse co2 in there and dose the usual EI salts.

from this page I think the mum has the tail of the O.vittatus?

Cheers,

A better picture of mum

That's great and really lucky with just 2.

Because this is a bit amazing. Congratulations

Im now up to 25+ babies as of tonight. This is the eldest (about 5-6 weeks I reckon) with mum.

Congratulations!
