MOST hermits are useless with Algae, especially if there are other things to eat in the tank like each other.

I like hermits cuz they are funny to watch, but for real natural algae control, go with snails all the way.

Scarlett hermits and Zebra/left handeds seem to be the most interested in greens (scarletts especially) but even they are predatory at times.

Add a couple hertmits, maybe 1 or 2 in a 28 to eat extra food and detritus but other than that, you're wasting money.
IMO of course.
