Kent mag @1800 for a week will kill it as long as your nitrates and phosphates are low

Ive had both hair algae, and bryopsis(still have), and the best algae eater Ive ever had was a purple tang(sold him to a friend because he became to aggressive). Now I have a Scopas Tang, and a Foxface, that have totally eaten all the hair algae, but will not touch the bryopsis.
