I would get rid of it. Syphon it out if you can.

Use a turkey baster and try sucking the bubble up into the baster and then bring it to the surface and discard.

I have always used tweezers on mine. Or you can get an emerald crab, they eat it. The "bubble" is a lot firmer than it looks.

If the tank is big enough and it is bubble algae, a Foxface Rabbitfish will get it.
With the turkey baster ball depressed when you fist put it in the tank, and then release the ball when you want suction, pressure should be enough to get it. Surely, if you put it right next to the bubble as close as possible, it should suck it up.
But if not, then the Foxface Rabbitfish if you don't want to get a few Emerald Crabs in your tank.
