Wanting To Breed Otos

[fishy55599]

i am hoping to get otos very soon when they get some in stock again.

I am wondering what foods should i feed them to condition them.
also will do cool waterchanges to the one going in my cory tank.

i know they eat: algae, algae wafers, cucumber.

i have got catfish pellets, frozen bloodworms and flake food also.

my corys are fed 3 different things daily to get them to breed. so it should be the same with these as i have read they breed in the same way.

i dont think you can breed otos in aquariums i think there all wild caught the only info i can find is on Otocinclus vestitus im not sure if these are the ones most lfs keep or not heres a link anyway

ive read they breed like corys just more rarely
