I noticed little green spots on the front of my tank today, they look like little polkadots. What can i do about them, is there any fish that will eat them??

Sounds like the regular kind (you might want to let it grow a little more to be sure, but then again, you might not). Regular algae-eating fish (Otos, other plecs, etc.) should clear that up.
