Baby Otto Pics!!

[Hurley]

While hunting for unwanted snails this morning(ramshorns and pond snails) I saw something wiggling on the glass and I thought to myself, "oh no!!! what has infested my tank now!!!" but when I took a closer look I saw it was a little baby fish clinging to the glass!! Then I saw another, and another, and another!!! As far as I can tell they are baby ottos because they are the only thing in my aquarium that can breed (my blue rams have been seperated due to bad behavior for the last couple weeks!) I noticed that some of my ottos were looking really, really fat and I wondered if they were full of eggs! It seems that they were!!!

Unfortunantly I am leaving for vacation today so only time will tell if they are going to survive!

Here are some pictures!

Wow!
how'd you breed your otos like that?
I hope mine breed.

You know twig, I wish I could tell you!!! I have no idea though. I feed them very well and have them in a fairly densely planted tank.

here is a picture of the tank they are in:

and here is another picture to give you a better idea of how small they are...

Congratulations! That is awesome! How many adult ottos are you keeping in that tank?

How tiny!! Can we see a pic of the parents? I'm not too familiar with ottos(GASP!) I'm probably the only one here that has never owned one.
