Uh-oh! algae attack!

[Evo8]

I have brown algae starting to cover my rocks...I also have green hair algae forming on the glass and some on the rocks..how can I keep this under control? Perhaps an emerald crab?..any suggestions lmk! It showed up on my glass almost over night! I currently have 5 hermits and 5 snails in there..2 clowns and a firefish as well.. should I just let it run its course? Im not so much worried about the brown algae as it is a newer tank and I know it goes threw its stages..but what about the green hair algae? I think it may have came in with some of my frags..

How much are you feeding? It looks like cyano as well as GHA

Remember the fishes stomach is the size of there eyes adjust feedings to fit. up the PWC's to help remove extra nutrients
