Why this fish?

Otocinclus arnoldi is one of the smallest and most peaceful catfish available, making it ideal for nano aquariums. They stay small, are plant-safe, and gently graze on soft algae and biofilm without disturbing your setup.

Common mistakes

  • Adding to new tanks → high mortality
  • Expecting them to clean all algae
  • Keeping them alone
  • Not enough natural food (biofilm)
  • Keeping with aggressive feeders

Care made simple

  • Temperature: 22–26°C
  • Diet: Biofilm + algae wafers
  • Group size: 4+ recommended
  • Water: Clean and stable
  • Tank: Established setups only

Pair with

  • Algae wafers
  • Driftwood
  • Sponge filter
  • Live plants
NTA Insight:
Most issues with Otocinclus come from unstable tanks and lack of food — not shipping. If your tank is too new or too clean, risk increases significantly.

FAQ

Do Otocinclus eat all algae?

No. They mainly eat soft algae and biofilm.

Can I keep just one?

No. They do best in groups of 4 or more.

Why did my Otos die quickly?

Usually due to new tanks, lack of food, or stress.

Do they need feeding?

Yes. Supplement with algae wafers.

Actually feels cool at night
Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard
I’ve been using these for several days now and I did notice a difference. I tend to get hot while sleeping, so I was curious if they would actually help, and they do feel cool when you lay on them. I also like that they’re soft and comfortable, not that weird texture some “cooling” products have. So far, I’ve been really happy with them.

Cool, Comfortable, and Worth Every Penny!
Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard
I’m honestly impressed with these pillowcases! From the first night, I could feel the difference—they stay noticeably cool, which is perfect if you tend to sleep hot like I do. The fabric feels silky smooth against the skin without being slippery, and it’s really gentle on both my hair and face. I’ve also noticed I wake up less sweaty and more comfortable overall. They fit my pillows well and don’t slip off during the night, which is a big plus. After washing, they held up great—no fading, shrinking, or loss of softness. If you’re looking for pillowcases that actually help keep you cool and comfortable through the night, these are definitely worth it. I’ll be buying more!

Extremely cold, silky, gentle on hair
Color: White, Size: Queen
This was so cold when I removed it from the package that at first I thought it would be too cold. It was as if it had been in a freezer. I really like how silky it is on my face. (I can't stand a rough feeling pillowcase.) It is also gentle on my curly hair. The pillowcase can warm up from being slept on, but a shift of just a few inches gets back to wonderful cold. I highly recommend this as an extremely cool, silky smooth fabric. These are much colder than my very expensive miracle sheets.
