I am having a bubble algae outbreak at the moment and i read that foxface or tang can help to eat them. I am wondering is there particular foxface or tang that would eat bubble algae or all types of them would eat these algae?
 
It's totally hit or miss. I have a buddy with a Emperor that will eat bubble algae and aiptasia. The one I had wouldn't touch either one
 
I had a sailfin tang that eats them if I don't feed him. But if he is fed, then no luck on the bubble algae.
 
orange spot rabbit fish, foxface, and most all of the other rabbits will eat it. Crabs can be hit and miss as well- especially in a well fed tank. The best scenerio is to borrow a rabbit- after a few days the algae will be gone and you wont be stuck with a fish you really dont want long term.
