Just to name a few:
Plecostomus. Ask in the pet store if they have plecos. If you have goldfish, Don't get a pleco, as plecos are nocturnal and goldfish are not, whe the goldfish are in their state of rest, a pleco finds the vital protective slime coat of a goldfish quite tasty. they have also been known to suck the eyes out of some fish. they really do prefer a heated tank. Plecos can grow really big, so make sure you have a very large tank.
other algae eaters for your aquarium include:
Mystery/Apple snails (these breed like rabbits, so get one, or if you have a pet store near you that are willing to take the young snails off you hands, get multiple snails)
Cory catfish (these would only survive in tropical tanks, as they are tropical fish).
