Algae eating companions for Oscar (no plecos)

[BassetsForBrown]

Hi,
I have a fully grown Oscar in a 90g. I'd like to add something that can help with algae growth, but not a pleco - too much poop.

Any suggestions for something that wont be eaten?

Thanks!

Maybe a flagtail characin.

Instead of getting another fish to control your algae you could instead find the source of what’s causing the algae and stop that? Most of the times it’s over feeding, a lighting issue, or both. If you wish to go that route then we can help you figure out what’s causing it.

As for fish, ottos are small enough that they *might* go unnoticed or at least not be worth the effort to eat.
Nerite snails are good algae eaters as well.
