Green bubble algae outbreak in my tank. All my perameters are fine. I think there were a few bubbles on the rocks of my star polyps when i got them and now there is at least one on every rock in my tank.

There are a variety of ways to get rid of bubble algae. You can VERY carefully pick it off with forceps, but be careful not to break the bubbles - that may spread spores in your tank. I favor biological control with an emerald crab. They are fun to watch, and do a great job.

a lot of times, the bubbles can be gently rocked back and forth with your fingers to dislodge them. forceps will work, but add to the chances you will rupture the bubble (which is VERY not good)...
