Well, I went to the LFS today and got a Otto, algae wafers, CBWs, A Java Fern, and some Cambodia. I need a place to put the Otto, Don't want him to be with the HRP's, since they just bred(Yeah Very Happy Very Happy )
but, I don't want the Bichir to eat him, the Bichir is 3.5" and the Otto is 1". Will the Bichir ignore him or try and eat him. I have the Otto in the holding tank for the Plecos and moved the Bichir to the HRP's tank. He may have to stay if he will eat the otto.

If the bichir notices the oto, the oto will become a neat-to-eat-treat, so if ya leave them together name the oto Dolly Madison. Smile Really not much more to say 'bout it.

That will be a tiny snack for the bichir.

I hope the HRP's can defend against the Bichir cause the Otto is happy in the Pleco tank.

I see little tails on a few of the eggs. Male has been fanning eggs, giving mom a break. The Bichir is doing good, he hides under the Cedar that is making the water darker, I like the effect. Males seems to darkened up too. Plus, Bichir has somthing better to do than harass the HRP's, stalk tadpoles, he had one struggling to get free last night. I see a few carcasses I need to remove.
