If you search the APD archives you will find many postings on the
American Flag Fish. IMHO it is by far the best algae eating fish
around. It eats large amounts of algae. They will quickly clear your
tank of filament type algae. The one big problem I have with them is a
high mortality rate. It may be the soft and slightly acid water
condition I maintain doesn't agree with them.
