Your "common sucking loach" looks much like an oto and as passive as they come. What you thought were Chinese algae eaters are indeed otos. The picture of the golden you posted is indeed the evil creature of which we speak. As they age, they tend to start sucking the slime coat off of other fish, especially large bodied fish like angels and gourami.
