New Oto Update

Well the otos have been here about 2 weeks now. No losses yet ( fingers crossed ) and everyone seems to be doing excellent. They have stopped the hyper swimming all over the place and are cleaning the tank nicely. They are not to terribly shy but will startle if someone walks by the tank quickly and they didn't see them coming. They have found the veggies I put in the tank and are not shy to join the guppies eating them. I feed broccolli , cucumber and brussel sprouts and have read that sweet potatoe and carrots can be used to . I had to use the net to chase one off of the clip to be able to change the veggie in it today...and he was grumpy about it he did not want to go . I had to push him off 3 times as he would circle the net and go back to the clip...lol. I will be getting 5 more of these this weekend for my other tank. I have not been cleaning the glass on it lately as I want a nice growth of algae in there to help them out untill they are used to me feeding veggies. Sorry for the long post.
