Just leave it alone.
Reduce the feed.

Prolly new tank syndrome n you over feed the tank.

Dont put any med as it will only prolong the cycle.

Btw, angle fish is not tetra friend...

I need to buy some cherry shrimp as part of school project.
Grade doesnt really matter.

Anyone hv CSR to let go?
Pm

It will eat shrimp.

clearer picture will help..

CAE has sucker lips that allow it to stick on the rock or flat surface in a fast stream.
Also from the black band that ends at the body but not the tail, this should be CAE which dont eat algae:)
False SAE, the band is smoother and most also end at body.

For SAE, the middle black band reach to the end of the tail split.
Also, get smallest SAE you can find. Bigger SAE eats fewer algae.

Below is SAE, notice it has small misai and the black band reach end of the tail. They rest with head slightly point up but never stick to glass like a pleco.

Adult rummy nose or cardinal tetra length is a good SAE size to get.
Combine of SAE, Oto and amano shrimp is good cleaning crew for planted tank. It also depends on what other fish you have in the tank.

Loaches, Corydoras, CAE, any pleco, cherry shrimp type and crayfish is not a good planted tank cleaner.
Good luck in catching the CAE (use 15cm wide net if you have)..
