Any ideas to maintain the hair algae in my tank, it has a pleco, black tetra, 3 neon tetras and 2 nerite snails. The snails don’t seem to eat any of it but it is starting to take over. Is there any easy ways to maintain it, or anything I can put in the tank that will eat it

Have lots of live plants, especially floating plants.

Add some shrimp, most shrimp eat filamentous algae.

Reduce nutrients and or light.
