I'm planning a new apisto breeding tank which will be planted and I'm trying to think of other fish I can put in there that won't prey too heavily on the fry or the eggs. So far I've come up with otos. Any other ideas?

Ethan14,

Otos are good fish for that purpose, although a 20G can create some problems. Is it a 20G Long tank? I would assume that in either case you would have to provide for quite a few hiding places, but in particular in a 20 Tall you would have to be careful as the whole area is part of the male's territory, but during fry raising the female will be quite aggressive.

If you are serious about breeding then I would suggest not to add too many other fish anyway.

Hope this helps a little,

Ingo
