4 otos is a lot for a 7.5 gallon tank. The rule of thumb with otos is 1 oto for every 10 gallons. More than likely- all of them would starve in a tank that small. Every oto is different, some feed...

I think my water changes intrigue my fish. My Bolivian Rams actually nip at the siphon hose. The neons and glowlights don't really care and will just group up at the other end of the tank. The...
