I like ottos. From what I have seen though, they only eat GDA. I haven't seen them touch GSA, BBA, BGA, hair algae, staghorn, or any other type. The best defense for most algae, IMO, is good CO2 levels.
About the flying fox thing:

Yeah they both have a line going through them and a little past the start of the tail, but flying foxes have a black stripe going from front to back of the top of their body, while SAE's don't. That's why I'm thinking its a flying fox. It's also shown in one of the links you gave me with the diagrams.

For Algae eating fish, how do u get rid of BBA when they're in your moss etc? Just take out all the infected portions and turn up CO2 or will turning up the CO2 automatically kill the BBA?

LMAO I just looked at my clock, 1:23 in the morning hahha!
