I was up at a LFS earlier today and came across a variety of oto I hadn't encountered before: Otocinclus flexilis. Actually, I'm assuming they were flexilis... the LFS had them listed as 'flexus'. :rolleyes: Somewhat larger than the great little algae munchers Otocinclus affinis, I was wondering if they (flexilis) might also have that remarkable appetite for algae. Can anyone fill me in on this species?

Thanks!

I looked up Otocinclus Flexilis and man it looks cool. Not that different from Otocinclus Affinis. I would like to get one:)

I was snooping around on the internet one day and i found a fish called a Golden Otto so i thought that might have been it. But it was just a regular Otto :D

Cool fish,
