Hair algae on branching hammer


I just noticed hair algae on my branching hammer. Should I worry about this? There isn't a trace of the stuff anywhere else in my tank.

can you toothbrush it off? If so do it in a little container outside of the tank rinse and put back in the tank.

Does it have nasty sweeper tentacles keeping your cleaning crew at bay?

No I have had the hammer for about 5 months. The hair is no where else but I can say the cleaners don't go near it!
