Algae Eater!

Question
My 80 litre community is covered in algae and I want an algae eater. Are there any you can suggest?

I don't like the pleco as they can grow quite big!

Thanks for your time and help     Wayne

Answer
Hi Wayne,
Get a gold nugget pleco. They are beautiful, don't get over about 6 inches and can eat algae like a lawn mower. The only downside is that they cost between $30-$50 and up for a little one. They are wonderful characters.
