I know manual removal is important part of getting rid of green hair algae but what's the best method to get rid of it between tightly grouped zoas and clove polyps? Is there a dip that will get the job done?

Will this kill off macro algae in my algae reactor? And will it affect my other parameters in any way? Can I just bump it up with the red sea mag or does it contain too many other nutrients?I used Kents Tech "M" it's a magnesium additive. Bump you magnesium up to around 1700-1800 and watch GHA literally dissolve in days. Bumping mag up won't hurt corals, fish or inverts.
Which ones are best I've got a few ceriths , nassarius, nerite. Have 2 emeralds as well. Don't have a good count of snails due to hermits thinking they needed an upgrade.Get a bunch of snails and every night take those snails off the glass and put them on the problem areas
Can do without 1 answer and the obvious answer you really didn't read what I asked ...1) sell your tank, or
2) manage your no3/po4 through WCs, super oversized skimmer, and dosing a carbon-source to fuel good bacteria
It is by our back door that has a 20ft roof over the back deck.Remove as much as you can by hand, reduce white light intensity and add the following snails:
Astrea
turbo grazer
cerith
trochus
nassarius
** Pencil urchin
Is tank by chance at or near a window?
UV from sun is very strong and can penetrate shades and blinds and is my suspect why I asked.It is by our back door that has a 20ft roof over the back deck.
Gotcha currently it's only on my zoa frags and clove polyps. The zoas are closest to the door but the polyps should be out of any direct sight of it. I was running a 10 hour day with my xr30 g5s cut it back to 8 no moon light.UV from sun is very strong and can penetrate shades and blinds and is my suspect why I asked.
Why did you put two stars by pencil urchin, do they work super well or is caution advised?Remove as much as you can by hand, reduce white light intensity and add the following snails:

Not a snail- means also a good optionWhy did you put two stars by pencil urchin, do they work super well or is caution advised?
Can be defeated without chemicalsFluconazole
Sure. IMHO:Can be defeated without chemicals
Peroxide best for GHA
Flux best for bryopsis
