Before you choose from this collection

This is a broad algae-related collection, not a verified list of algae grazers. Catalogue membership does not confirm that every animal shown eats algae, suits your aquarium or can live with the other animals listed.

Start with the exact species and your existing aquarium. Check adult space, water conditions, feeding, group needs and tank mates before choosing. An algae-related feed name or catalogue tag is not enough to establish grazing behaviour.

Buying an animal is not a guaranteed solution to algae. Review your aquarium maintenance and the cause of the problem, and choose livestock only when you can meet its ongoing needs. Each selected listing shows its own offer, size, sale unit and availability.

Frequently asked questions

No. This broad catalogue collection includes animals whose algae-grazing suitability still needs checking. Confirm the exact species and its feeding needs before ordering; collection membership is not a recommendation for your aquarium.
There is no guaranteed animal-based solution. Review the aquarium and the cause of the algae, and check species-specific care before adding livestock. Do not buy an animal solely on the expectation that it will remove algae.
No. A feed name or catalogue tag does not establish natural grazing behaviour, aquarium suitability or compatibility. Check reliable information for the exact species rather than treating a food label as an algae-removal promise.
Compare the exact species, adult space, water conditions, feeding, social needs and existing tank mates. The animals in this collection are not all suitable together. Ask for help with your aquarium and the particular listing if the identity or care needs are unclear.
Check the individual listing and selected variant for its price, supplied size, sale unit and availability. Membership of this collection does not mean an animal is currently available or held in our own system.
Confirm the selected animal and offer, prepare a suitable aquarium, and read the current delivery and returns pages before ordering. Contact customer service if you need help with suitability or the offer details.
