Bubble Algae

I found what looks to be Bubble Algae in my tank when I came back from my Thanksgiving trip. How do I get rid of it? Thanks

YOu can pull it out with your hands

Some believe emerald crabs will eat it. If you just notice a small outbreak, you might do well to simply remove it yourself. Just be sure to not pop them in your tank as it is speculated to lead to more.

Yank it out while you still can. Try not to pop them if at all possible but do whatever it takes because once it gets going its an uphill battle.

Dam, Thanks guys.

Jordan would swear that they would clean up a rock of Bubble Algae within the store in less than a day. But remember that they are oppurtunistic feeders and will prefer to eat other things I fear.

I have found that they will eat it, but it is last on the menu from what I have seen.
