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. Most of the time, you can find some for around six dollars at your local pet store, or aquarium. Not all of them get very big, but of course, there are different breeds and kinds.
