There are many species of plecos. There's also algae eaters but they can be pains when they get older. Otos mainly clean your plants but they may help with the walls a bit.
Corys and loaches pretty much just clean the bottom. There's also snails but I highly suggest staying away from them because they will take over the tank very quickly.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
