Algae eater for 90Litre

[Nefersmum]

I currently have a 90l with 9 cloud minnows and I have been wondering what to do about algae. Is there an algae eater that might go with these?

What about a nerite snail? They work tirelessly! Unlike other snails they lay eggs but their eggs don't hatch in freshwater, so you won't get extras.

+1 for nerites.

If your water is cool (which is should be for WCMMS) and you have high flow (not needed for WCMMs but appreciated) you could get hillstream loaches.

I'm really struggling with snails in there for some reason. I've tested for everything under the sun and tried various species but for some reason snails are doing very badly in with the minnows. I now have a second tank for the snails I rescued from the main one.

I'll certainly have a look at the loach though. My minnows adore the bubbler - if I'm missing one I usually know where to look for it.


Thank you for the advice.
