The only thing that really works on hair algae is a seahare.
Snails and crabs, even fish, won't even put a dent into a hair algae infestation, but a seahare just mows it down. Once the algae is gone though, you need to pass the seahare along to another reefer, as it needs a lot of algae to eat or it quickly dies.
