In theory....no, the hair algae doesnt kill corals, what does kill the coral is hair algae growing profusely next to it preventing the coral extending its polyps and getting sun light. Algae can cover the 'mat' of some species of coral such as xenia and star polyps also preventing the polyps from extending and getting nutrients and sunlight.

Another possibility is that some conditions that favor algae may not favor the life of the coral such as temperature of the wate and pH of the water.
The pool water is green because of algae- which is a type of plant. You just need to add more chlorine to kill off the algae...
Algae is a water purifier and will not kill Guppies at all.
Corals capture microscopic particles from plankton floating or swimming past their tentacles. Their nematocysts (organs on their tentacles that can release a whiplike thread sometimes tipped with poisonous spikes) hold and kill their prey. Some corals obtain most of their food by eating zooxanthellae, a type of algae with which the coral have a symbiotic relationship.
you kill the algae
Chlorine and Algaecide, and flocculate then when the algae is dead vacuum it to waste from the bottom of the pool. ( Follow the instructions on the containers)
Yes, the sun can kill algae by exposing it to high levels of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, which can damage the algae's cells and inhibit its growth.
Get an algaecide and follow the instructions. it makes no difference what sort of pool you have.
Yes, vinegar can be an effective natural remedy for killing algae. The acidity of vinegar can help to disrupt the growth of algae by changing the pH of the water, making it difficult for algae to survive. However, using vinegar to kill algae is best suited for small-scale applications such as removing algae from surfaces in a controlled environment.
No, pollution of the water is what causes the green algae. When extra nutrients such as pesticides, runoff, & human/animal waste are added to the water, it in a matter of speaking, makes the algae go nuts. The algae starts to grow in vast, huge amounts. The algae clouds the top of the water, blocking the sunlight that all the plants and animals need. When the algae dies it covers the grass beds and destroys the aquatic plants and animals' habitats. The only real way to stop the algae is to quit polluting the bays. oceans, rivers, etc.
Yes. This is a potent chemical. It will kill the algae and turn it brown. Hope you have a good filtration system to filter all the brown out.
I would try going to any aquarium shop, and get a product called algaeflex or algaefix. Treat the water with correct dosage. This should kill off the algae and you should then drain it and clean off the dead algae.. Happy scrubbing I would try going to any aquarium shop, and get a product called algaeflex or algaefix.

yes they can some species seems to like to eat corals such as zooanthid
