Chuck,
I would suggest Jordanella floridae. They eat both hair/filamentous
algae and duckweed. They do not eat your aquatic plants. I have used
them successfully for control of hair algae in my 55 planted tank. This
also provides and endless supply of flagfish and they are all the best
colored flagfish you can find because of all the carotenoides in the
algae!!

Just my 2 cents worth,
Boat
