The Oto Journal

11/13: Did a 15% water change on the baby tank. Set the trap in the main tank. Didn't have any zucchini so I'm trying with the seaweed. At last check, no Oto's but (3) shrimp. ;o)

Tried something new. I took a video with the camera and posted to YouTube. Let's see if this works. It's not all that great of quality but bare with me as this is the first time I've shot video.

That is fantastic! So cool to watch them all darting around!
 
11/15: Seaweed trap was not successfull at all. Welllll....I did manage to catch (5) shrimp and Boris was at the funnel opening munching the seaweed. Prepping some new zuc's now. Might try one more trap with zuc before having to resort to other methods.

CO2 bottle needs a recharge.
 
11/16: Water Test today.

Set another trap in the main tank using zucchini. We'll see if we get any takers this time.
 
11/17: Trap was completely unsuccessful. I think they are on to me. Will have to try something else. I still need to transfer a few more of the babies to the 20. Most of the ones that are in the main tank are the older juvies.
