Algae eaters are those inhabitants whose presence in the aquarium is mandatory. They are often overlooked and as a result small amounts of algae in an aquarium can lead to a large algae outbreak. The main role of algae eaters is to prevent algae from growing actively and to eliminate those algae in the aquarium that are invisible to your eye. This is important at the stage of the appearance of small algae colonies and at the stage of cleaning up algae residues after the treatment with special agents. But this does not mean that the institution in the aquarium, for example, only Siamese algae eaters will solve all problems with algae. It is important to have different types of fish, shrimp, or algae-eating snails in an aquarium because each type of algae-eater is only effective against certain algae.
In this video we see fish: Otocinclus affinis, Siamese Algae Eater, Scalare.
