I would much rather have those than the plec. my husband bought.

I wonder if they could survive an ice storm like that stupid plec. did?

There are 4 of them, had 5 but one decided to get himself caught in the filter uplift tube. The rock they're on isn't normally in the tank, but I put a couple in from another tank to supplement the algae diet and they had them pretty much cleaned off over night

If you like the oto cat (work horse in alge control). You should try the Florida flag fish it like to eat all hair algee and does not get bigger than 2"
