No need to feel ashamed. Every reefer has had to deal with algae at one point or another in their reefing career.

Hello and Welcome to R2R! I have 5 tangs in my 180. I used to have hair algae but they are like lawnmowers!

If you don't have any, I would recommend a few Mexican Turbo Snails. Only get those, if possible. They are much better imo than other "turbo" snails they may try to sell you.

The turbo snails I got were Mexican turbo snails. I did some research and usually Mexican turbo snails prefer 70-73°F water, which wouldn’t be good with the livestock in the tank.

They have done well for me over the years in a 79 deg tank. I think many people use them in warmer tanks too, I guess they must be hardy outside of their preferred range, but you can ask on this site to be sure.
