I would like to say if you have a small aquarium and you would like a bottomfeeder please get a oto they are great!!

I have two in my 10g and they keep it clean and they keep my snails clean too.

What are they? I havent seen them in my LFS

otos like to be in groups thats when they work at their best. groups of 4 or more. they like algae, so theyre not recommended for new aquariums that have no algae

Otos are pretty common, although they seem to come and go from LFS's from month to month. They really go after the brown algae (really diatoms) that often happen in new tanks.

My LFS always carries them.

would two of them get a long with two dojos in a 55g
???

Good chances are they get along with everything

Depending on the amount of algae in your tank, more than two would be even better.

Excellent algae cleaners!
