New Aquarium *8 pics*

They are all pretty, I don't want to make you upset or anything but I think that is a Otto, its a small algae eater called Otocinclus, or for short an Otto and eats algae And the neons are definately vibrant in their color, I must say that you did an excellent job on your tank, its brightly beautiful, I just love the coloring in it

Thank you! Thanks, Kalei. The lady at the pet store told me it was a catfish but my Dad told me he was a Otto/algea eater. I thought I could trust Petco, figures. Thanks for the info and compliment. Either way I think he is adorable.

Cute fish! I love neons, there so pretty. Very nice tank too, what size is it?

[Alysser]

Thanks, bre! The tank is 3 gallons.

Isn't Ecco a goldfish? You may need to get him a 30 gallon tank.

[Alysser]

No, Ecco isn't in there. My neon tetras are along with a small little otto.

That's a cute little tank! Must be a nanocube? I've always heard otto referred to as ottocats, so I can understand how she'd say it was a catfish.

Hes a darling little catfish (i'm a sucker for any sucker fish or fish with whiskers), and an excellent choice for a smaller tank -- and Kalei is right, hes in the Oto family --

Also, Pleckos and Algae eaters are in the Catfish Family as well, even though there are so many different species, and many look so different from each other
