Otos?

I'm thinking of getting an oto for my 5 gallon tank with a male betta. Will an single oto be fine, or would he want a buddy? I've heard otos can be kept by themselves..

Thanks!

Hmm, ok!

But I still would feel better if I only keep 4 or 3. I'm only 13, I don't think I'll have time to do so many changes with 10 in a 5 gallon tank :?

Thanks for the advice though! I'm still going to keep my eye out for pygmys in stores, maybe look up a non-chain fish store near me. :)

P.S. Don't get me started on the 1" per gallon myth. This ain't the 1950's!
Lol!

Well, I know it doable, anything is pretty much, but it is comfortable for the fish? :?

My tank is going to be a 5 gallon with one male betta. I was told I could put in 3 or 4.

I can't take ten, it's too much, I won't have anywhere to put the rest :(

Where to buy Pygmys?

Hi everyone!

Well, if you read my other post, I'm considering getting pygmy corys. I doubt my petsmart or petco has them, they only have larger species (panda, etc.). I'd like to buy them online, the only place I know is aquabid, but the only sellers are selling them for 10 or 25 corys each auction ...
