Algae cleaning fish in 55 gallon fuge

I just upgraded my refugium from a 20 to a 55 gallon. I would like to add an algae grazer to the fuge to control the hair algae that often grows when a new fuge is breaking in. I was thinking a small tang (would later be added to the 210 display when it gets larger) or possibly a rabbitfish. However, I want the fish to control nuisance algae, not the caulerpa that I will be growing out.
So my question is this: are there any tangs that feed primarily upon hair and other nuisance algaes, but not macro? How about rabbitfish??
Thanks,
Victor
 
Hair algae often grows in a new refugium?
That's news to me.
But,I'd put a lawn mower blenny in there if you're worried about it.
