Fish are only one type of animal that eats algae. There are many algae-eating snails, shrimp and clams that can be interesting additions to your tank. Florida flagfish (Jordanella floridae) are great additions to the aquarium that has a brush or beard algae problem.
Some people do have good luck with algae eaters, but it can really be luck of the draw. Not all species of fish sold as algae eaters do eat algae, and some can't eat algae. Even the ones that do eat algae are really unlikely to eat enough algae to make a difference in the algae growth in your aquarium.Selling fish to eat algae is one of the common myths and misconceptions about fish and aquarium keeping in the pet trade.
