I bought a frag from my lfs about 2 weeks ago today I see it has green bubbles growing on it... can I just take it out and be ok? Or am I just infected now?

No iodine but peroxide likely would workI removed that frag from the tank. It was only a 20 dollar little ricordia. Would iodine dip kill it? That's all I have atm, or should I just cut it as a loss? Or am I just screwed regardless?

One good rule is keeping your hands out of your tank. Even more so if you have Maroons. Why would you want to constantly put your hands in your tank, forever, because velonoa never gives up, and one small bottle of vibrant eliminates it forever in a little over a week, and is never a problem again?I think you may be overreacting a bit. Take it out, apply peroxide on the algae directly and return the shroom to the tank. It will likely be manageable. I have bubble algae pop up occasionally and it’s easy to take care of. The nice thing about bubble is it clusters and can be removed pretty easily
I think it’s better to try treating the one spot before jumping to dosing the entire tank. It’s not constantly, maybe every few months and I’m already in the tank doing some form of maintenance. Basically I can live with it just giving op another option. Does op hand maroon clowns?One good rule is keeping your hands out of your tank. Even more so if you have Maroons.
