Exclamation Chinese Algae Eater w/ Angelfish Tankmates

A few days ago I got a juvenile(1 1/2 inches) Golden Chinese Algae Eater.
I have been reading that they will suck on slime coats of fish like Angelfish.

Well, I have 3 juvenile Angelfish in the tank with him.
I am worried he will kill one of them when he is older.
I have also read having 3+ Angels with him, he should leave them alone.

Any advice would be helpful.
The Pet stores here do not have Oto's, or Bristlenose Pleco's.
(or any other smaller/less aggressive sucker fish).

I gave up on Chinese Algae Eaters a long time ago. They would torpedo the Angel fish so hard I was sure they were going to hurt them. I now rely on my Plecostomus to take care of the algae.
