Could otocats be bred? Aren't they all caught in the wild? Do correct me if I'm wrong here cos still am learning.
I do have one zebra oto and two normal ones in my 3 feet tank; those are the ones that have survived thus far.

Some are captive bred, but a large majority are wild-caught.
Fish.. Simply Irresistable
Back to Killies... slowly.
Still no luck. GC has no stock on Zebra OTO.
Have you checked JZX?
Jzx at AMK central right? I haven't check there yet.
OK thanks. Do you know roughly what is the price range like?
I check with JZX, they mention zebra stock will come around this coming Sunday !
Did you manage to get them bro? I called they said don't have
C328 stocks them too when they are in season, which is soon I believe.

Hypancistrus and Tanganyikan cichlids breeding
Wow, didn't know there's a season for them. Guess I'll have to standby some funds for them once they come in. Thanks Johannes!
Guys good news, just went to C328. There were a few zebra otos priced at $14 each
That shit Cray!
Auntie said that they arrived one week ago. Wanted to get some but decided to wait one more week. Hopefully there'll be some left haha.
Always have trouble keeping more than 1 oto in a tank. Every time try to replenish to more than 1 in my 2ft tanks, rest will die leaving one sole survivor. Anyone experienced the same?
Have kept 2 dozen zebra otos in a 4 footer before selling off. They can and will survive, but must ensure that theres sufficient food for them. I feed sliced boiled zucchini every fortnight. They love it.
As I was already halfway west (Leng kee workshop) this afternoon, decided to make my way there. When I arrived, they were in 2 tanks (CRS and Sulawesi shrimp tank???) Maybe someone spilled them over as one tank was above the other on the rack. Counted 8 in total. Mai tu liao netted 3. When reached home after acclimatisation seems the colour is coming back (they were initially all.. white in packet on the way home... phew)
Here's one of them exploring their new home. Simply gorgeous..
Off topic a bit; as usual, my customary routine whenever at C328 is to check out the hermit crabs pail(promised daughter if good results for mid year exams), say hello to the Filipino helper (find her most helpful amongst the staff there, auntie usually very busy, hence I usually approach this lady), and check out the new shrimp arrivals. Not much time left, but I did notice an inverted packet hidden at the back. Lo and behold, inside were 6 black/ blue bee shrimps ( I think culled) but all were berried!
Wasn't intending to get any shrimps but this was too good to let go. Maybe someone (I suspect Wooty) wanted it but decided to check out other items and left it 'marked' that way so he can come back later to grab it. I quickly paid up and exited the shop.
Nice !! C328 so far from me. If u go again help me buy haha, I go pick up from you keke.
