I bought 3 for my 20 gal.H. One only lived a month. One lived 5 1/2 years approximately, and last one will be 6 years this month. This last one appears to be dying though.

How do you stop golden algae eaters from sucking on my goldfish?
You rehome the Algae Eaters. Chinese Algae Eaters, what you have, are hardy tropical fish that turn increasingly predatory as they age.

They are also capable of taking out eyeballs or even eating smaller fish entirely who sit still too long.
How big to plecostomus algae eaters get?
It depends not only on the type of algae eater, but also the size of the tank. If you're talking about plecostamus, they can grow to 6 feet long in the wild, and in a tank will usually die once they hit two feet long. (sad, really) All life has a genetic imperative to reach it's full size. If you put an animal (fish or whatever) in a container too small for it, it will become so stressed, eventually, that it will die. That is why people think goldfish live for only 2 or 3 years, when in actuality their life span is closer to 25 years. If you get a pleco, try to get a dwarf (7 inches long fully grown). If you are looking for an algae eater, try an otocinclus, a coryadora, or a mystery/apple snail. They do a more thorough job and are less of a hassle to clean up after. Good luck!

That depends completely and entirely on the tank. In a freshwater tank with anything besides lightly stocked algae eaters, I wouldn't go any longer than a couple of days without feeding. Of course, they could survive maybe a few weeks without food, but that would be cruelty.
