Are otos stupid or just suicidal?

Are otos the only fish that doesn't run away when something approaches it? I mean I tried to net an oto, and it didn't even put up a fight. All the other fishes run away, but otos just stay there. It did move around a little, swim a just a little but that's it. wtf?

Maybe you weren't threatening enough... It sounds like you may have some sick fish... my Otos are very active and constantly jumping from plant to glass to plant sucking on algae... If yours had no inclination to move from your net, it is likely ill or very unhealthy...
