I think they do basic changes (10% water changes) and basic maintnence, its just since the alge problum they havent been doing much. I'll fix it though ^_^ Inky

Inkling Fish Addict Posts: 689 Kudos: 498 Votes: 11 Registered: 07-Dec-2005	I was thinking a small pleco because I have personally had better experiences with them. Also, once the alge runs out the ottos may not acccept other foods. Inky
