Tangs, hair, big cleaning crew….or pressure wash it. Then freeze or bake, then pressure wash again. But then you will have to read season your rocks

At least that’s what I did when I was new to the hobby and had that problem

I’m afraid of big clean up crew and having them die and produce nitrates and cause it more

Pay attention and remove them as the die.

The best way to get rid of hair algae is to remove the nutrients that are feeding it. What are your general water parameters and do you keep track of NO3 and PO4?
