Any success with Algone for green hair algae?

I recommend an emerald crab they obliterated the hair algae I had.

Emerald green crabs can definitely be helpful with algae, but you might want to reduce the amount of dissolved nutrients in your system. Scott was having problems with green hair algae, when he started using the Deltec AP701 and his ER RC-180 it definitely got better. Nutrients and phosphates seem to be the problem that usually causes the algae, so fix the source not the symptoms.
