Just about 2 weeks ago I received my order of 2 zebra otos - which makes a total of 4 in my tank. They were received on time (shipped over night from when they left facility) and packaged well. The zebras were active and healthy looking when I opened the box. Acclimating presented no issues and now 2 weeks later they are doing great! They are my favorite fish now- hands down! I'm obsessed!
Ordered three. They all came well packaged and not stressed. They have acclimated quickly to my tank and look great!
I am very happy with this zebra otocinclus catfish! It is a great specimen just like the rest of the livestock I have received from you guys! Thank you!
