Yep most of the shrimp species will eat algae, also how about bristlenose plecs?? They keep algae in check and dont grow large, 4 inches is the largest iv seen in a aquarium. They are also easy to breed, if you have a mature pair then you do not need to encourage them. Once you have fry you will never suffer with algae again and you can cash them in at the local shop, then you can buy a phosphate remover to sort your water out and stop algae taking over :D :lol:
