    Pleco fish are the best to keep the algae out. Snails are also good but you should keep your eye on them, they can reproduce quickly.

  2. Rebetee Says:

    Otocinclus is another good choice. They don’t get much bigger than 1-1.5″ so you can get several of them to help spread the workload around for a more effective cleaning without them taking up too much space and overstocking your tank.

  3. Michael Says:

    get the bottom feeders as they are mostly algea eaters, get cat fish species and fish the stick to the side of the tank, make sure you dont get janitor fish as they can harm other fish.

    get some bottom feeders, like catfish, or clown loaches….they’ll keep the goo from the bottom of your tank.
