Okay so Spike is confusing the heck out of me. First I thought he was a loach, then an oto, now I'm completely confused. A number of things puzzled me about Spike the oto (or so I thought he was) - first, he's thriving with my goldfish, coldwater. Second, not knowing any better, I put him into a brand spanking new uncycled tank set-up. He lived, and thrived. Two days ago, I saw him chasing my two goldfish all over the tank.. got to a point I almost took him out of the tank altogether. That puzzled me because I thought otos were peaceloving little things. Now I've stumbled upon voiceless kat's thread on whether hers is an oto or a CAE, and now I'm wondering if it's a CAE
In which case I'm really starting to worry!!
What is it
Sorry the pictures aren't great... my camera isn't the best at zooming.
one of the quick was to tell is that at a glande the CAE seems to have an interrupted stripe(sort of like dashes------) down its side and the oto has a solid stripe.
