A bottom feeder for 10g?

yes you would need algae for the otos, how long has the tank been set up?? You did say it was a planted tank, correct, which the otos will like.
Also you can't always see the algae that the otos eat all the time, so if it's a tank that's been around for a bit you should have some food in there for the otos.
 
It's one of my older tanks; I've had it since September. I guess I'll go with ottos. Thanks.
 
That Kind Of Takes A Lot Of The Choices Out But Yah Im Sure Maybe 2 Emerald Corries Is All I Can Think Of.
