That's bubble algae. Probably means you have high nitrates. Manuel removal is a must. Don't pop them as that will release spores. Emarld crabs are supposed to eat it but doesn't always happen.

Is emerald crabs the only way to get rid of it???????

Emarld crabs don't always eat it so if you don't like them don't take the chance. Manuel removal I have found works best for my tank.

I have found ways to remove it but none have kept it from returning.
