Best algae eater for specific algae...

[JP457]

I dont know what they are called but they arent any I ever saw before they apered in my tank. They have sort of cream collored bodies and brownish gold shells with speckles on them. I know they are eating it because I have seen them do so and you can see the trails they left through it in the denser parts.

For green hair algae, you can also try American Flagfish, they're great hair algae eaters.

The snails are sort of spherical with the whorl flattened on one side

I realize this isn't algae but bacteria, but I was wondering if anyone knows of anything that eats that blue bacteria. I recently had an outbreak and can't seem to get it all out of there despite frequent water changes and manually picking up colonies I see.
