    Default Green Bubble Algae

    I noticed I have a small amount of green bubble algae around the base of one of my corals. The bubbles are too small to pull off by hand. How can I remove it? Is ther anything that likes to eat it? I just don't want it to spread.

    Thanks
    Chris

    if the crabs dont work u can also uses a siphon to pop and suck them out. the crabs are more desirable though because if not all the spores are sucked up by the siphon all u do is get more.

    I have a bunch of green bubble algae on the right side of my tank,and I poped them . They came back like everyone said they would. I bought 4 emerald crabs to get rid of the bubble algae and they have not made a dent in it. If you find something that works let me know
