6 AWESOME Aquarium ALGAE EATERS That Aren't Pleco Fish

6 AWESOME Aquarium ALGAE EATERS That Aren't Pleco Fish
Rabbit Snails are cool looking algae eating snails great for eating algae near the bottom of the aquarium and also for keeping the substrate clean.
Nerite Snails are another algae eating snail. These snails eat algae throughout the aquarium on all surfaces including algae from the plants, glass and ornaments.
Gobies are a cool and unusual fish to add to your aquarium for eating algae. The scrape algae from rocks plants wood and ornaments. Gobies are a bit hard to find but a great addition when available.
Shrimps such as Amano and Cherry shrimp are a solid algae eating shrimp to add to an aquarium. They clean algae and detritus from many places in the tank but mainly from plants, ornaments and substrate.
Otocinclus dwarf catfish are an excellent small algae eater perfect for small or nano aquariums. they will eat algae from plant leaves,glass and ornaments. They need to be in groups and heavily planted tanks.
Panda Garra Flavatra are excellent algae eaters for any aquarium and are great for eating algae from all parts of the aquarium. They are slightly larger than other fish i have mentioned so need a larger tank.

Not everyone has room for a pleco, especially the common or sailfin variety. Here is a small collection of alternative algae eating fish for your aquarium. Enjoy! FOR EXCLUSIVE VIDEOS CHECK OUT MY PATREON PAGE: www.patreon.com/EverydayAquarist

Nice video bro

[@tiensu1]

Good information! Is there a more common name for Panda Gara? I my state, there are Animart, Petsmart, and a few other fish retailers, but I have never seen that name. One major drawback of buy fish online is that they tend to be smaller than the size described. I can’t pick them before I buy. But if they are affordable to my budget, I will certainly buy a bunch of them because I have algae everywhere. UV sterilizers don’t get rid of them, especially the black/green/red beard algae. Will this species eat the black beard algae,too? Thank you!

[@EverydayAquarist]

They grow big tho

[@tylerzerbe6861]

Had a 90 gallon that was getting too much sun. Algae went nuts, pleco ignored the agae and ate cichlid pellets and flake. Got about an inch of algae growing on everything in the tank. Was looking gross. Asian dude ran this shop that i'd wander into from time to time. Not my usual shop. He had garra pingi for like 2 dollars each. I picked up a handful of them and put them in the tank. After the first hour they had eaten little trails zigzagging thru all the algae. By morning all the algae was eaten. Had to buy a big bag of algae pellets for them after that. Not the prettiest of fish, bud damn could they clean a tank.

Very informative! I also love otocinclus and didn't know they should be kept in groups ,so thankyou. My understanding about nerite snails is that they are saltwater snails, that can only reproduce in saltwater, but can live quite nicely in freshwater or brackish ,which is nice for people that dont want snails to take over their tank I love the pleco rating scale!

Nerites for glass, Amano Shrimp for everything else. Cherry shrimp are small enough to get picked off by any fish that feels like it. Also get Otos because dey cute.

The fascinating part about snails is how they make there own oil other wise they would run out if there weren't enough plants. They store it as a sugar then they make alcohol after they convert it to oil.

Thank you, this instructional video just solved my problem on what to get to control the algae in my tanks.

[@robteeuwiszen]

Good info video, i like it. Thumbs up. I have a bristle nose albino, amano shrimp and bamboo shrimp. Along with the other fish i have. But i did not get them to clean for me but with me. ( pleco just eats the drift wood and waffers, it wants nothing to do with my the algae :p ) I have very little algae to begin with. In my opinion if someone has an algae bloom, or just cant get it to go away, look for the problem, can be loads of things, but most of the time its to high and to much light or overfeeding that causes an excess of nutrients in the water. But when you have it in controle and you find a balance, all these fish and shrimp do an amazing job at keeping the algae away.

[@aresmarrow7713]

In my tanks I chose to go with the farlowella catfish, ghost shrimp, and a zebra snail for my main algae eaters, I only have 1 pleco which is a rubbernose but it's mainly for looks in the tank

[@SMDoktorPepper]

To be fair, plecos dont actually eat much algae, they eat wood.

[@santisisneros7756]

And once big enough they also need there own food or they will eat your plants if they aren't getting enough protein

Everyone seems to had their giant pleco somehow either from the tank or pond your family kept from your childhood lmao But to all seriousness, just a friendly reminder, don't throw them in a wild when you got the excess of them because they are invasive and have almost no predators. Keeping them as your friend in home and make their life as easy as they can is the best that we could do for them

[@thephantomdragon]

Between the mix of them they do a pretty good job getting in the harder to reach areas. I also have an assassin snail which has surprisingly survived the kuhlis for well over a year and they have given up even trying to eat at this point.

And the eggs are very difficult to remove, especially if they're on your rocks and driftwood.. they're embedded and you need a razor blade to remove them, only to see 50 more the next week. Also the eggs won't hatch, only in brackish water. Something to ponder before purchasing.

The fact that nerite eggs/larvae cannot successfully come to term in FW is one of the main reasons I recommend them over rabbits, trapdoor, mystery, apple, bladder or even malaysian trumpet snails, all of which can get out of hand in their own ways if left unattended in an aquarium suited for them. If your fish can find/reach them it's just another source of enrichment and protein for them, at least the eggs don't go to waste that way!

They'll chase each other over the decoration, taking full advantage of the tank size and its decor. In this video, the panda garra stood out to me.
