You will find that plecos, despite being 'armored', will never fare any better in a tank where there are too many territorial disputes. If I were you, I'd simply scrape the algae. Algae can't be that bad if it is not rampant at all. Address the main cause of the algae, not the algae itself.
I have 2 gold chinese algae eaters and 2 bristlenoses in with mine. Can't seem to grow algae though! They doing real well. Don't see the bristlenoses much although when I do they are fine. The chinese algae eaters are always out and about.
