I'm getting a huge outbreak of bubble algae

[jbm421]

I use a pair of tweezers to carefully remove most of the bubbles. Sometimes they come off in clumps. I have an emerald crab in my sump. Thats usually the only place I get bubble algae. He might not eat it all but he keeps it at bay. The best way to get rid of it is to keep your levels in check and don't overfeed. Also, I never let it get out of hand. At first sight of it, I pull it out. I never let it build up and get out of control. I think that's where people go wrong sometimes. They don't do anything about it until its everywhere.

That is where I went wrong. I thought it would starve itself and was afraid to pop it.
