so i have 1 betta, and 5 neon tetras in a 10 gallon planted tank. it sometimes has an algae issue. i just got an algae pad but i would like to put something in (NOT SNAILS-they require hard water and i cant do that) that will 100% be compatable with my fish. i just realized i cant do a golden sucker fish...thanks!

otocinclus cats might work.

it might be hard to add anything because you already are fully stocked.

2 oto cats might be alright if you keep up the water quality

You need to separate the neons and Betta - as the Neons will soon discover that nipping fins is fun and Betta will pay for it with his fins. Separate them before that happens and you'll save yourself a lot of trouble and Betta a lot of pain.

Otos would be cool - another reason to separate the neons and betta because you don';t really have room for otos with the neons in there. Just put the Betta in a bucket when you add the otos, and re arange the decor so Betta does not feel that his territory is being invaded.
