Hey guys I just bought 5 doz ghost shrimp for my 55g for a few reasons

1, Algae control
2, Discus food
3, My 4 yr old will love to watch these guys:)

My question is: will these guys control my hair algae (BBA, Staghorn)?
Discus really haven't figured out how they taste yet:drool: will they in the future?

I'm trying to find a natural way to control a very little hair algae outbreak. while I try and get my C02 level from fluctuating. If I Excel My plants will it harm the Shrimp? Any Good advise on Ghost shrimp will be great!! Thanks in advance:)
