The problem is that they tend to eat themselves out of food and then starve to death. It's popular to borrow one until your hair algae is gone, then let someone else have it for a while.
Yes, from my observations, they certainly eat hair algae.

mine chomped down on fresh soft hair algae. wouldn't eat the old stiff stuff. It eventually burried itself in the sand bed and died when there was no more food left.
I'd arrange to find somone to take your's in advance. Don't leave it until all your algae's done or else it might be too late to find somone.

Mine seems to be doing a good job so far. Still poops like crazy, but that can be dealt with. I am hoping to trade/sell him here pretty quick once it is a little more cleaned up. Likwid how is yours doing?
