I have green hair algae growing in my tank and was wondering what are the best ways to get rid of it. And if there are any inverts or snails that can help me out as well?
thanks
tony

Besides tank maintenance, you can get a seahare, emerald crab, sally lightfoot, turbo snails....
and pick pick pick :)

I love me a blenny!
I have one, not really attacking the hair in my tank, well at least not that I see. Hermits are actually helping with it in the substrate. As far as the rocks i added 4 emerald crabs 2 days ago so we will see how that goes. Sallys are aggressive with age and would hate to lose livestock in the process of removing hair. Turbos I have my usual number and they seem to be doing ok, if its spreading its going really slow.
