There are several species of fish that are known to eat algae as a significant part of their diet. Some examples include:
- Siamese Algae Eater (Crossocheilus siamensis)
- Otocinclus Catfish (Otocinclus spp.)
- Bristlenose Pleco (Ancistrus spp.)
- Chinese Algae Eater (Gyrinocheilus aymonieri)
- Hillstream Loach (Beaufortia kweichowensis)
It is important to note that some species, such as the Chinese Algae Eater, may outgrow their algae diet and become aggressive towards tankmates. It is also important to research and understand the specific dietary and habitat needs of any fish species before adding them to an aquarium.
