 | Kribs and Ottos? |
girlunderrainbow Big Fish Posts: 323 Kudos: 230 Votes: 0 Registered: 22-Aug-2003   | I have a pair of Kribs in a 20 gal planted tank. Have some brown algae probs at present..added 4 small CAEs..but they just aren't doing that great of a job. Would Kribs leave Ottos alone? The CAEs are 1 1/2" -2" and doing fine..but then they are more aggressive. |

The kribs will be fine with otos until they spawn, then they are aggressive to any bottom dwelling fish. |
