Default Biotope algae eaters

Here in South Texas we have sailfin mollies locally that can be used for algae eaters I reckon, but I was curious to know what others are using in different areas in their biotope tanks?

Here in georgia and most of the southeast you can also use Flag Fish, also called Florida Flag Fish, American Flag Fish, (Jordanella floridae), Thery're pretty little fish (about 1 1/2 inches). Mine are constantly picking at all types of alge even black brush, of YMMV but they've been good for my plant tanks
