Oops ! Sorry for that !
I live in Erode (Tamil Nadu) near Coimbatore.
Sorry if I'm wrong, but I guess live fish can be shipped around India from and to anywhere ? I really want to buy a pair of this fish from anywhere... Kindly advice friends !
Regards

Will check in Bangalore thru my sources on its availability. It s not that common to get your hands on them... Check with GatorX on his experience of shipping them thru air cargo. |

Check with Adip or Kiran. They should have Otos. |

Kush,
There's no shortage of fish that will help you clean algae that are more easily available.
Please elaborate on the type of setup and I am sure you will get more responses. |

The ottos are delicate non interfering small fish. You should see first if they will be safe with the large inmates in your aquarium.
You may have to have to order at least a dozen as I do not think anyone will be interested to ship you two.
Adip's mobile number is 9886221483. |

Why don't you attack the source of the algae problem instead of increasing your already high stock ? Have you kept the tank outdoors ? |

Suraj would probably be your best bet, or you can get them off Adip id:aquadip2000) if you come to Bangalore anytime.
As Trevor says
Only your best friend will ship you two fish. |
