Mostly i just clean the front and side panels of glass when i do w/c. But i was woundering if there are fish that are safe to put with rays that will clean the glass? I know alot say to stay away from plecos. Drives me nuts when the glass is dirty lol.

I have had some success with snails, although the Aro eventually battered them into oblivion.

Flagtails are amazing at cleaning. Just make sure you get one that doesnt develop a taste for slime coat!
 
i just use a scrubby to clean the glass.
 
Good to know have to check on flag tails. I dont really care for snails dont want them all over the tank.
 
Snails would get eaten by your rays....
 
some people have luck with plecos
 
what type of plecos do you suggest? Thank you in advance.
