my sucker fish

Question
I had 5 little gold fish in a 10 gallon tank with a sucker fish. I just got them two or three weeks ago and two of the smaller white gold fish died. The sucker fish has been attacking them if they get to close do you think that the sucker fish could of killed them?

Answer
Hi Sam!

Yes, the "sucker" fish may have attacked and killed them. :C Thats because they are semi-aggressive meaning that they will attack other fish. If you want to get rid of the algae, you can buy some Mystery Snails/Apple Snails or a Magnetic Algae Scrub/Remover. You can even simply just buy algae control. All these items are available @ your local petshop (Petsmart/Petco). Always follow the instructions given.
Hope this helps!
