Bubble algae! What gets rid of them? I've had it picking them off. I have some emerald crabs, put they can't keep up. I've heard foxface will eat them but what else? THX

phosban ... seriously, I have never been able to get rid of them totally, but i notice that after I used phosban sometime it turn them clear white and kill them.

Most Zebrasoma desjardini Tangs eat them but you have to get rid of the large ones first as they only eat the small new ones. My Black Tang eats them as well.

My Desjardini (the red sea one) eat them but he gets lazy after a while. I have to go in there and stir things up before he e=start eating them

Hey Steve, can I borrow your tang . I just removed a very large handful last night of large bubbles. The largest I pulled was nearly golf ball size. I think I displaced some water. What about foxfaces?
