I have a 55 gallon planted tank that has recently had a minor algae breakout. At the moment it isn't too bad - just a thin coat of it over some of the walls, the driftwood, and a few plants - but I'd like to stop it before it spreads any further. Right now I'm deciding between purchasing either snails, Amano shrimp, or some oto catfish. Which one of these would be most effective at eliminating algae from my aquarium? Is there a certain combination of them I should use? Also, are there any species I'm forgetting that could be useful (other than plecos - the one I have has decided to live exclusively off bottom feeder pellets)?
