Absolutely. I'm a big fan of FLW's architecture. Even today, it's ahead of the times in a lot of areas.
As for the Otos, yes,the do take sinking algae tablets. However, I see them hanging around the vegetables if both are available. I get zucchini, spinach, brussel sprouts, cut them up and freeze them for easier use. When I need them I pick a few pieces blanch them before serving. I use either a veggie clip or stick them up in a thin metal rod and leave it in the bottom for them. Usually, 2 quarter inch slices will last a maximum of 2 or 3 days for a group of 5 otos and 2 bristle nose plecos. I feed veggies twice a week and change the type of vegetable everytime for variety. That said, don't leave uneaten food for more than 3 days in the tank.
Good Luck.
