Looks like bubble algae. I believe pitho crabs will eat it and sometimes emerald crabs.

Bubble algae? Are they all clumped together?

Start popping them and add some pithos and emerald crabs. Although popping them is more effective than the crabs in my experience.

I would remove what I can (not popping I believe that will release spores). Agree with the crab options (try to get female if you go that route). Also agree on the rabbit fish; tangs typically love it too. At some point you’ll find it only where creatures can’t get. There are chemical options too (vibrant for example).

I would STRONGLY advise against vibrant. It's an algaecide, and might kill some of your corals.

Plus they were in a bit of drama for false advertising as they did not say it was algaecide.

Popping them does not release spores. That's a myth that keeps showing up. Tangs are hit or miss just like everything else that's supposed to eat them.
