Asian Small Algae Eater

[Biulu]

I am about to set up a new tank, a Geo System 80 (125 litre) and want to make an Asian white river biotope. I have the future stocking list complete, but am only missing an algae eater. Does anybody have ideas? I am looking for a smallish fish in line with the other inhabitants. Temperature will be 24 degrees, pH around 7.4.

Future inhabitants:
Cherry barbs
Lambchop rasboras
Zebra loaches
Peacock gobies
Female betta

Plants:
Rotalas
Crypts
Java fern
Crinum
Aponogeton
Java moss

Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks, Eleonore

I can't think of any but the flying fox is an algae eater and would thrive in the same conditions.

Yes, people have been suggesting species from the Crossocheilus genus. I considered most of them getting too big for my tank and the other inhabitants though (around 15 - 16 cm). But there exists C. atrilimes, a smaller species which only gets to 7ish cm; that suits my needs much better. The only problem now will be to source them!
