The adult otos tend to hang in here during the day...the cories go in there sometimes too but I don't believe the danios are fond of it...

There's also the other castle from the 20g that's pretty dark inside. The outside is grey so I can't tell if there're any babies on it.

I rescued a little guy yesterday night. I couldn't help it! He was swimming around the surface of the water and would have been eaten!! So I put him in the mini habitat and filled it 1/3 full of tank water. This morning he was still alive! So I filled it 2/3 full with more tank water. I also put some first bites in there in case he eats that...
I'll refer to him as Squirt from now on. Hopefully he survives...any suggestions on what I should do with/feed him? Thanks!

Lol, maybe after I'm done with college in 4 years *fingers crossed*
Haha, I think my younger sister who just graduated from HS may be finished with college before I do.

I've got about 74 gallons worth of fishtanks, if that counts for anything

Geez, the only thing I could get to spawn for me were the guppies I used to have, and the cherry shrimp which breed like roaches.

My pygmy cories once bred, but someone (the betta) ate the eggs... and those pygmy cories are now long-gone (may they RIP).

I found another one in the 55g this morning so I sucked him up with the python...
He's kinda stunned so he sucked himself onto the walls of the mini habitat. So I got some pics!!! He's a lot darker than the first one (which is still alive!) I'm afraid the first bites aren't what they are craving for right now...what should I feed them??

Slightly sideways:

Actually, my mix of first bites has crushed flakes and crushed algae wafers already in it...but I'll try just the wafers.

I was thinking the algea wafer crunched up because everyone in all my tanks love algea wafers... The angel fish attack the wafer while zim attatches himself to it. And they ARE ottos
You're one lucky duckie.
