Welcome to Tropical Fish Keeping forum.:-D
We have fish and plant profiles, under the second heading from the left in the blue bar across the top of the page. The Chinese Algae Eater is included; the name shaded to form a link, so click it for the profile. It explains the issues with this species--and mentions the trouble with cichlids.
I've never kept this fish myself, as I do not want these issues;-), but the profile I think sets them out.
