Green Hair Algae? Removal?

demariners

Work In Progress
So I noticed I have a good amount of this algae that appears to be hair algae but it seems more stiff like turf algae. I have it throughout my tank. What animals could I get that will eat this stuff? I have a bunch of snails (Astrea, Nessarius, nerite, and cerith snails). I prefer not to buy Turbo snails due to the fact they rarely survive. Here are some pictures of it. Again it is green but looks purple with the lighting. Kind of looks like pipe cleaners.



 
Turbo snails don't survive? This is the first I've heard of this!

Anyways I don't like Turbo snails aka bulldozers but they sure can eat hair algae. I can't tell what you have from the pics but if its hair the Turbo snails will wipe it out
 
Well like I said it doesn't look like hair algae. Anything that will eat this? All turbo snails I ever got flipped and died.
