The Siamese Algae Eater is one of the best algae-eating fish in the aquarium hobby, and it is one of the very few fish that will eat the dreaded black beard algae The Siamese Algae Eater (Crossocheilus siamensis) is a longtime favorite in the aquarium hobby due to its active nature and its voracious appetite for various types of nuisance algae, including pesky black beard algae It is a mostly herviborous fish that is gregarious as a juvenile, but is shoaling (rather than schooling) as an adult As it matures, a distinct hierarchy develops within a group of this species, and stress and aggression are likely when the group contains less than 6 specimens Care is simple for the Siamese Algae Eater. It is tolerant of a wide range of water parameters, but it will thrive in an aquarium with ample filtration and moderate to high water flow. This active fish is known to jump occasionally, so a secure aquarium lid is recommended It will readily eat most high-quality dry foods rich in vegetable matter, but it should also be offered fresh vegetables such as zucchini and cucumber as well. Meaty foods should be kept to a minimum with this fish As stated above, the Siamese Algae Eater is a generally peaceful fish, but it will prey on dwarf shrimp and other very small invertebrates. It does not seem to bother most snails, and we have found it to be generally peaceful with most larger shrimp (such as Amano, Flower, Green Lace, and Vampire Shrimp) as long as they are too large to be considered easy prey The Siamese Algae Eater is a schooling fish as a juvenile, but can become more territorial with its own kind and similar-looking species as it matures. It must be kept in groups of at least 6 fish to avoid harrassment of subdominant specimens, or else it should be kept singly Aggression can be kept to a minimum in a larger tank with plenty of territory and cover for each fish live fish for aquarium live shrimp cherry shrimp exotic freshwater live fish live aquarium fish shrimp live shrimp tank live shrimp freshwater aquarium ghost shrimp live fish live live freshwater fish freshwater shrimp freshwater fish live fish freshwater neocaridina shrimp live live daphnia live fish fish tank decor freshwater live fish for aquarium buy live fish aquarium live freshwater live shrimp live goldfish live fish for ponds exotic freshwater live fish guppies fish live fish pond for fish tank freshwater live aquarium fish live guppies live snails aquarium fish tank live shrimp live live fish store shrimp tank pet fish live shrimp freshwater aquarium live for aquarium guppy fish live live catfish snails for aquarium live freshwater fish freshwater shrimp aquarium guppies snails for fish tank freshwater freshwater nerite snails live fish for sale biorb decor freshwater fish live fish freshwater biorb fish tank guppy fish aquarium
