Thanks!

As you know, all I'll have in my 75g is 1 BN, and 6 otos.

Are there any veggies you found consistantly did NOT get eaten consistantly by either your otos or loricariads, so I don't waste my time on them?
Doug,
Some kinds like certain kinds of veggies, so it does take a bit to see what they like best. For the little marbled bristlenose clan, its blanched zucchini and to a greater extent cucumber, and algae. For my Hypotopoma group its spinach leaves and algae; they ignore everything else. The P. tigris like the hard fruit; peaches, pears, apples, cantaloupe etc., though they do graze on algae I give them.
Just have to put in a selection and see what they like. Whatever, it needs to be softened up for the Otocinclus.

Dave
