It depends on how you run/set up your tank. If your skimming, flow, feeding, etc, etc and adequate where you don't need a CUC, more power to you. If you have limitations with your ability to be the CUC, then they can be of service. Just don't fall into the trap of overstocking your CUC an expect they are the only ones to take care of all the cleaning.
I've been doing algae eradication on my tank for about a year. One pesky red algae eluded eradication. I read that Mexican turbos eat red algaes. I put four in my 29 gallon tank. It has taken about a month but the are doing a great job and taking care of it.
