Aquarium Advice FINatic
I figured SOMEONE has to do this. can i see a list of the top 5 algae eating fish/inverts that you can think of? thanks. oh, rank them please.
1) any type of Pleco or Bristlenose are the best algae eaters.
2) Chinese Algae Eater
3) ototinculus
4) invertebrates (snails, shrimp)
5) hillstream loach
just for the record, i \d sooner suck the algae with my own mouth before id get a CAE

bruinsbro1997 said:1. They don't eat algae, only when super young
2. They grow 11 inches long
3. They are aggressive
4. They eat your fish's slime coats!
They are basically the aquarist's version of a devil...
