Doliatus rabbitfish. There's not a species of algae it won't eat. Even picks at dinos. The only place I have algae growing is where corals have grown in to tight for it to reach.
Second to that is my Copper Band butterfly. I cleared out the aiptasia problem in my tank with berghia, and now I'm pretty sure my Copper Band is responsible for keeping them out as a few have popped back up in the sump, but not a single one in the display.
Finally, and probably most important of all - my long horn cowfish, because it's so freaking charismatic even my partner Kelly, who sees my tank as nothing more than a giant money devouring vortex, loves it. The amount of leeway I've been given on the tank and the relationship/tank capital I've banked by having that guy floating at the glass begging all our dinner party guests for food while Kelly talks about how cool he is is quite literally worth that fishes weight in gold.
