Catfish and Algae eater

[tonyswim3]

I think i might have made a mistake.....

I recently added a gold algae eater in with the 3 juli cory cats i have in my 20 gal tank

I guess my question is: Is this good or bad? I noticed some algae on rocks and plants, that's why i thought i should add the algae eater, but i realize he might be bothering the cories more than anything

Any feedback would be appreciated...........

THANKS

gold algae eaters get about a foot long and are semi-agressive.....i think for a 20g you should have gotten some otos instead. 4 otos or so will clean a tank of algae, but you have to make sure you have enough algae to sustain them. if not you should feed them veggies nuked for about 30 seconds in some tank water. the cories will eat the veggies too. otos are also VERY peaceful and only get about an inch and a half long.
