i need a good algea eater that can go in my 75g cichlid growout. something that eats algea like theres no tommorow, can take the cichlids possible aggresion, but not harass other fish.

Dunno about you, but when I setup my 180g Front tank, it was so icky with algae I didn't know what to do. It was everywhere. The plastic driftwood was almost completely dark green. I had 2 regular run-o-the-mill plecos in another tank so I figured I'd throw one in. I did just before I left for the weekend. Monday morning, the tank was spotless. Crazy, I'd never seen such a bang up job by a pleco. Both plecos were the same size. The one in the 180g has now doubled the size of the other at around 8". So, I'd go with a plain jane pleco.

i would get a reg or another gibby but 75 will be too small for life.

My Siamese algae eaters do a lovely job. They eat black/red algae too. My driftwood is spotless.
