The tank was moved to another house and everything was fine after the setting it back up. Then it had a spike, everything has gone back to normal other than an excessive am out of green hair algae. What can help get rid of it? It's my brother and laws tank and I was just wondering. Thanks guys!
 
Lower the po4 and manual removal
My lawnmower blenny loves the short stuff but doesnt touch the longer algae
 
Manual removal and lower the levels feeding it and figure out a way to keep them low.
 
I just watched a video by Melev. He adds Phos Rx, which weakens it, then pulls it out as stated above. Then adds snails.
