So, I've done some googling about what eats green bubble algae and looking on here and seems like most say to get a green emerald crab. I have had a couple in the last year that lived 3 months to 3 days. So I had just stopped worrying about the green bubble algae it since I literally only have 2 small spots with 5-6 bubbles for the last 4-5 months. However, I just watched one of my trochus snails go over one of the patches and he literally wiped it out over about 2 hours. So, did he eat it, or did he pop them all and now they will spread LOL. Just curious because not finding a lot of info about Trochus eating green bubble algae specifically. The area he went over is wiped super clean...
