Yesterday I was in the local fish store and was recommended 10 of these little guys. I believe she mentioned the name Pandas or something, she said that they are excellent algae cleaners and are full grown , and will do good with my setup. Can anybody give me a proper ID of these catfish, it’s hard to get a picture of them because they’re always attached to the glass. I’ve been looking for a good cleaning crew for my heavily planted aquarium that will get between the rocks and Driftwood and clean lose food debris and other stuff however, she informed me that they feed on strictly algae and nothing more.

I also have a two inch blue eyed BN pleco that I rarely see along.. with three adult Cory cats. In your opinion, is this a good cleanup crew for s heavily planted discus setup? Opinions would be so much appreciated!

Oto cats, but I don't see much algae in there for them to eat.

They really dont eat much else. I took slate pieces in water change water out in the sun to grow algae for the ones I used to have to feed them. They sometimes will graze on algae waffers.
