I was able to snap this one today. Proud papa, and little baby. I see 3-5 of these guys a day, in various stages of life, this is one of the larger ones. It's frightening how quickly they disappear they swim away, who knows how many are actually in the tank.
Hello,
Some great pics, here is my contribution to the Oto photos (please excuse the quality) I have had these for 2 weeks now all seems to be OK - Thanks to the advise from this forum.

Here's a picture of my "oops baby". I wasn't aware that otos would spawn in aquariums, I was actually on my way to buy a few more! Instead I decided to cycle a new otos-only tank and see if I can get more babies.
Not sctrictly Otos as such, although they were sold as "Giant Otos," Otocinclus gigantes! You might struggle to find info on such a species
These two guys of mine (now wish I had decided on them a few weeks aerlier and so would have got more than the last couple) reach ~7cm and are Hypoptopoma inexspectatum (no common name). They have a unique line that runs along the side of their snout to along where their mouth is. Males have a thick "hook" dorsal fin ray, whereas females do not, I appear to have one of each...
