Default What will eat Staghorn Algae?

Thanks, I appreciate the post and the advice. I tried to purchase an
SAE but I think I got of the other fish that look very similar to an
SAE. It sure doesn't seem to be interested in the staghorn algae. When
you mention your Otos, what is the full name of that type of fish? I'm
not familiar with the abbreviated name.


Otocinclus - here's a link to give more info:-

Not sure if they'll eat the staghorn algae but they certainly polish
algae off my plant leaves :-)
