I'm looking for a fish that will browse on algae along with the usual mysis shrimp, pellets, etc... also one that would could possibly be a centerpiece fish? To start with I like rabbitfish and butterflyfish, and have a 72g with a pair of ocellaris, three anthias, and a sixline wrasse. Any suggestions are appreciated!

Thanks,
Chris
 
My angelfish pick at algea almost all day but I dont know if they are able to really get rid of it, but they do control it.

Snails are also effective, or at least from what I have seen in my own tank, and some of them eat cynobacteria as well (noticed that in the sticky about clean up crews). Emerald crabs (mythrax, I think) do well on some types of algea.
