Giant Ottos

Hi guys,

I've read that a lot of people keep Ottos with Zebs to clean up the tank without disturbing breeding and feeding. The only ones I can find locally are called Giant Ottos. Are these ok with zebs or do I really want the dwarf veriety? The giant ones are about the ame size as the Zebs.

Cheers

Sam

Its a hard one really although many do keep ottos at higher temps it is not recommended as being good for them, although my ottos will only breed at a high temp so I suppose this is open for debate.
It is also untrue that the eat only veggies and algae I watch this with my own eyes they love all manner of fish food so they will compete for food put into the tank.
