Green bubble algae

[thecheekymermaid]

Ugh so we had green bubble algae strike and since I had a left hand surgery and a right hand tendon rupture, I wasn’t able to get in the tank. Well today I bit the bullet and pulled everything out and cleaned it all in a separate tank hoping to avoid spore spread. Tomorrow will be a ten gallon water change and then an entire box of reef flux added. I hear that reef flux kills it. Anyone else have success with it?

Popping bubble algae doesn't cause it to spread. Just remove what you can..doesn't matter if it pops in the process

Literally took all my tock out and scrubbed it in a separate tank. I can’t believe the amount of starfish and green bubble algae that came off. Still have to do the water change and pray it doesn’t come back.

Good luck. I once had a spread badly few years back in my tank and I put a fox face in there and it ate them all.

I hear emerald crab eats that but I've never seen it with my own eyes.
