I added 20 fairy hermits to the 33g temporary tank and the hair algae was eradicated overnight but the detritus all of a sudden exploded. I'd rather have detritus than hair algae

It is all a big chain of digestive events right?....so when it has been run through every critter in the chain a few times, what do you really end up with? With a bb tank, I suppose there aren't as many processes in place to break that stuff down into more harmless material.
