Yes! Actually, they are called Alge Eaters, or their scientific name,Gyrinocheilus aymonieri ! There are common in fish stores, and they suction themselves to the sides of an aquarium and eat the algae.

Fish have what looks like a line of dots running along their sides. In some species there is more than one line. This line is called a "Lateral Line". It contains pressur sensitive nerve endings. These act like our ears and pick up sound and other vibrations which are transfered to the fishes brain. The fish then reacts as required.
What would happened if fish had no scales?
Theyre are jellyfish and starfish to name a couple that do quite well without fins. Then there are all the shellfish too. I wonder though if you meant what would have happened if fish had evolved without fins. If that is the case then the best answer I can give is that life as we know it would not exist because fins were the beginning of legs/limbs. No fins = no legs = differently evolved species.
Jellyfish, starfish and shellfish are not fish. They belong in different families and are not related to fish. The person above has no idea of what he or she is talking about.
Do humans eat the mola mola fish?
Humans have been eating Tilapia for at least 7000 years. The Egyptians farmed Tilapia at least 4000 years ago and Jesus passed out the very same Tilapia we eat today, caught in the Sea of Galilee (actually a fresh water lake), when he did his Sermon on the Mount. In fact, humans were still fishing mainly Tilapia from the Sea of Galilee until it was closed in 2009 for overfishing and low population fish counts.
In contemporary times, Tilapia is a major export fish with the largest exporter being China despite its many problems with raising Tilapia in highly polluted waters, their overuse (some scientists say "abuse") of antibiotics, as well as their practice of raising fish in excrement "fertilized" waters.
Tilapia is probably the most purchased fish in US markets and as prices for sea caught fish soar there seems to be no end to the increasing popularity of Tilapia as a worldwide, aquaculture product. In fact, according to INFOFISH 2010 "The US. was the single largest market for Tilapia globally. In the first 10 months of 2010, a 15% increase of Tilapia imports was recorded compared to the year before."
Indeed humans are eating Tilapia like never before.

most fish in pet stores are tropical, including bettas. therefore they like temperatures in the mid seventies, therefore depending on how cold your window sill is it probably would be better to have it in a warm part of the house for the fish.
