Bubble Algae Eating Fish

[SmoothSmoke]

Which fish are known bubble algae eaters?

No fish removes it all, but try emerald crabs. they do wonders! They also eat hair algae some times for me.

Emerald crabs can definitely do it, but they can be hit or miss. I have also seen Foxfaces eat it. I would try and remove as much as possible manually without popping them in the tank. Then you can work on figuring out the cause.

I got rid of my by siphoning it out when doing water changes, using 3/8 clear tubing. Just be carefull not too break them open. My emerald did nothing, they are hit or miss I guess. Lots of luck.

A buddy of mine had success with a fox face also. I've had success with a small out break and emeralds while manually removing it and siphoning out what I scraped off at the same time.

Foxface is your best bet but they can also eat Zoanthids and sometimes fleshy LPS. Emerald crabs do a good job if you get enough of them.

Foxface, but after a while caught it nipping acros. I hated to see it go! You asked for fish, but emerald crabs like it, too.

I had a foxface but he didnt touch the stuff. My emeralds arent doing much either.

Not a fish but I had a long spine urchin clear my tank of bubble algae. Along with some softies.

My blonde naso went after it like a salad bar.
