"Cleanwater" is this safe?

I have a hair algae problem that has bothered me 4 too long. I saw this product in my LFS today and was wondering if it's even worth checking out?

Yellow I second OR's comments, I do not believe there is a quick fix in this hobby. I guess I have a few questions for you, how often do you do water changes, what kind of water do you use tap or RO, how often do you feed, and what are your current water params.????

I have been looking at clean-up crews from IPSF and I do like the "Reef tune-up" for $59, but it is only good for approx. 50 gallon
tanks. Are the Mini Brittle Stars something to consider?

go to the root.. get a more powerful skimmer. or tune yours in better. do more water changes and feed less.
