Jadenlea Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 I was at petco today picking up that new tank I posted about. They had zebra otos. Are they also considered safe with shrimp or are they slightly different? I asked because they were pretty large compared to your regular Otos. I don't think I would ever pay their price, but incase I get impulsive.... Also, will they "school" with my regular Otos? I have 3 in the shrimp tank and they are pretty much inseparable. I know Otos are happiest when there are a few so I wouldn't want to just get 1 zebra if they wouldnt play with the others. (Petco is selling them for $20) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4n Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 They should be same as the regular Otto's I have a zebra in my 12L tank. I got mine at a LFS for $13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadenlea Posted November 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Thanks Han... but it occurs to me that it would be better for my pocketbook if you would have said that they would eat all my shrimp. gobble gobble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DETAquarium Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Just took a look online of the Zebra Otocinclus. Good looking fish! h4n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jadenlea Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 They are striking. So far I've resisted. I almost gave in and headed to petco yesterday but it was FREEZING Nor'easter here that helped keep me indoors. I do have to go to Petco for something else completely unrelated tomorrow so.. if they are still there.. who knows.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadenlea Posted November 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Ya Han, It was a good coupon. I used it sat to pick up the new tank. Unfortunately it expired on Nov 1st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
