Algae eating fish? Interesting. Haha.
Try getting some snails, they clean up some. |

some times when you change the tank water to often the waste
from the fish gets stirred up in the water that fish use to breath and that can cause more algae and if you get a algae fish a pocostomus is the best |

so like the last one said, get snails or a plecotomus, either way they rock for cleaning. theres also liquid you can buy at your pet store that helps keep algae down. I was the livestock (in charge of the living things)manager of a huge pet store and thats what i suggest

i use a magnetic glass cleaner, one part is inside the tank and the other outside, they stay together by the magnet, and you just simply pull across all the area of the glass, it is spotless in seconds, a pleco will also do the job.
