i came up with a rubberlipped and bulldog algae eater Raeshel helpe me with that ( sry if i spelt ur name rong)
 
Well there is the otocinclus which comes from South America and likes species of their own kind. And there is something called a dwarf pleco-which I have in the tank I look after.
 
Hehe im looking for the same. I already have ottos and they are great! but none of my lfs are carrying them atm. =[. If ya can find them tho they are excellent. What about the flying fox?
 
The best algae cleaners are Otto's and Bristlenose Plecs, which only get to about 5 inches max, unlike most Pleco's. Both of these fish would be fine with your current tankmates.

I 100% agree

I have both in my tank and it is doing very well...

Just one thing Oto's like live plants ( just to let you know )

they stay small but seem to have HUGE stomachs when it comes to eating algae

:D
