I have a fair bit of Hair Algae on the back window of my discus tank, it was left there from the previous occupants and it's too hard to reach to clean off manually. What else am I able to do to get rid of this stuff. It's not getting any worse but it is pretty ugly as it is so I would love to get rid of it. Water parameters are all fine now it came about from excess sun, (which has been taken care of).

Thanks.
