Some new photos to share on the development of my "Shrimp Haven"


Hygrophila corymbosa 'Siamensis' is a very hardy aquarium plant that is both readily available and easy to grow. H. corymbosa 'Siamensis' is an outstanding plant for mid to background plantings


The Otto originates from southeastern Brazil. It is also known as the Golden Otocinclus, the Dwarf Suckermouth, the Pygmy Suckermouth and the Midget Suckermouth Catfish. The scientific species names for the Otto include Otocinclus affinis and Otocinclus vittatus. The body shape and coloring are similar to a Flying Fox and a Chinese Algae Eater. There is a dark, black mottled band running from its head into its tail fin. Below the banding it is silvery white. Above the banding it is brown in a mottled pattern. Water conditions should be very clean.
