Default Red Slime Algae (cyanobacteria) taking over my tank

My tank has become a breeding ground for Red Slime. I have done a bunch of reading and it seems that there are some species of hermits that will eat the stuff. Other than that it seems to be hit or miss for most people. Anyone have any practical experience getting rid of this stuff?
