{"product_id":"otocinclus-catfish","title":"Otocinclus Catfish","description":"\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"14\"\u003eThe Otocinclus Catfish—frequently referred to as the \"Oto\"—is the ultimate miniature powerhouse for planted nano aquariums. These tiny, streamlined catfish are widely regarded as the absolute best consumers of stubborn brown diatom algae and soft green algae in the hobby. Because of their tiny adult size and exceptionally peaceful nature, they are one of the very few fish that can be safely housed alongside delicate dwarf shrimp. Otos are highly social and thrive best when kept in schools of six or more within a mature, heavily planted ecosystem with stable water parameters and an abundance of natural biofilm to graze on.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable data-path-to-node=\"15\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAttribute\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetail\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,1,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,1,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eScientific Name\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,1,1,0\"\u003e\u003ci data-path-to-node=\"15,1,1,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eOtocinclus vittatus\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,2,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,2,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCare Level\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,2,1,0\"\u003eModerate (Requires an established, algae-rich tank)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,3,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,3,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTemperament\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,3,1,0\"\u003ePeaceful\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,4,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eDiet\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,4,1,0\"\u003eHerbivore (Natural algae, biofilm, spirulina wafers, blanched spinach)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,5,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTemperature\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,5,1,0\"\u003e21°C – 26°C\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003epH Range\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,6,1,0\"\u003e6.0 – 7.5\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,7,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eMinimum Tank Size\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,7,1,0\"\u003e40 Litres\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,8,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"15,8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003ePlant Safe?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan data-path-to-node=\"15,8,1,0\"\u003eYes (Excellent for delicate aquascapes)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Williamstown Aquarium","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54909538468145,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/6066\/3601\/files\/no_image_product_fd6cb635-5063-4de8-b563-11081386bee4.png?v=1789996368","url":"https:\/\/www.williamstownaquarium.com.au\/products\/otocinclus-catfish","provider":"Williamstown Aquarium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
