I am curious about everyone's thoughts on algae eaters! I know nerite snails are a big one. I just have one male betta in a 5.5 gal tank with lots of decor, fake plants and some live plants. He is getting some algae buildup that keeps getting worse, and I have to suck it out with a turkey baster quite often. I am going to do a deep clean and scrub his decorations and such, but I was curious about algae eaters and if those would be beneficial. The algae isn't anything crazy so it probably wouldn't completely supplement and I would have to provide other nutrition for them. Are there any snails or any other creatures that eat algae, not live plants, and would possibly eat leftover bloodworms or betta pellets?
