You should solve the issue of why you have algae before you pick up an animal to take care of it. Is this a planted tank? If not, you can always keep the lights on for only small amounts of time. If it is, then you should look into CO2 injection, which can be done with a system you pick up at a LFS or doing your own DIY yeast reactor.
