Personally I would look at a clean up crew for cleaning up deitrus, fish poop, excess food, etc... If you are having HA problems, I would look at what would be the cause.
Using seahares, snails, fish, GFO or whatever else is just a band-aid remedy, and if you remove these, then most likely the HA would return. So you should investigate the causes of HA and see what may be the cause of yours.
things you can look at are:
1.) water flow
2.) excess feeding of coral and fish
3.) excess nutrients from heavy bioload. Not enough water changes.
If anybody can add to this list please do.
