Getting rid of hair algae

My 72g had a break-out of hair algae.. everyday I would see more and more. After trying to manually remove the hair algae for a few days, I decided to take a different approach and get the algae where it counts - the excess nutrients. The 72g has a 29g refugium, but apparently that wasn't enough to keep the hair algae at bay. What I decided to do was use a guppy breeder box I had laying around and threw some chaetomorpha algae from the refugium in there. I let it float around the main tank for about a week and low and behold, the hair algae started to disappear! I guess this method is a cheap DIY in-tank refugium that helped export the nutrients while the main tank had its lights on. So if your reef is suffering from an algae outbreak, try this method because it works wonders!

Here's a link to the guppy breeder box used to hold the chaetomorpha algae:
