algae eaters

Good day

Is there any algae eaters that don't grow to big. I have a 60l tank with guppies in it, so don't want a algae eater that grows too big.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

 

ancistrus is great

 

For that size tank, I think ancistrus (Temenicki) is your best option!

 

I would say Ottocinclus... That's a small tank. Ancistrus are very messy and make lots of Poop. Ottos are better algae eaters, and much nicer fish.

 

Thanks for the advice. I Went with the Ottocinclus. They are realy fun to watch in my tank.

Thanks again.

 

Firstly I would ask, Why do you look for an algae eater? Remember they are not the bee all and end all to an algae problem you might have! Rather look at what is causing excessive algae growth! Erratic cleaning and over feeding tend to be the biggest cause! Solve that then think about getting one of them. Ancistrus Teminki/Dolichopterus.Triradiatus are all lovely fish to have in your small tank. Disagree with the mess thing raised!
