mchlnovak Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I’ve noticed that someone is nibbling the tips of the leaves on my S. repens. I’m guessing it’s one of the SAE or Otos. I haven’t caught any of them in the act. Has anyone seen this before with these fish and what can I do to prevent it? (btw, the Oto in the image is not actually touching the leaves, it’s just the perspective) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXInkedPhoenixX Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Otos aren't plant eaters, as evidenced by my 14-17 or so and the 60+ babies in another tank- plants go untouched- unless it's plant rot-which they may or may not pick at but my experience has been pretty much no on that spectrum. I can't speak to the SAE though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lefty o Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 ive had otto's eat plants before, but its normally somewhere in the middle of the leafs, not the tips. you'll have to spend some time watching to see who the culprit is. its a sign they are hungry.
