Hey Guys and Gals,
So my tank has been going through some algae blooms lately (well started in the summer when I neglected the tank a bit) and finally I have a nice clean tank again with the exception of the bubble algae. Its slow spreading throughout the tank... its not out of control yet but I'm thinking I need to try to eradication the stuff before it does.
For those who have tried Emerald Crabs... are they guaranteed to eat it because I would hate to introduce one and instead of eating the bubbles it eats my corals and other inverts.
Rabbitfish- I don't want to add one... I've had one before and he was a glutten.
I may start with Manual removal being careful not to pop any of them and see if I can make a dent before I try an Emerald Crab or two.
Any other suggestions?
