      I've had luck with some crabs; Emerald crabs in particular. Other than that, I think there's a thread in the forum about it already.

      Emerald crab eats them, or you can carefully remove them without poping it with your hands.

      Some say emerald crabs will eat them but if they pop under water they spread.. Best is to remove the rock from the tank and then remove the bubble algea..

      If there's one bubble you can see, there are 10 that you can't. Those things are teh mushrooms of the ocean. Get an emerald and if you're lucky, it will eat the small ones and keep it under control while leaving your corals alone. i had an emerald that was a good algae eater, but I had another that insisted on perching on my torch and frogspawn (they didn't like that at all). Throw the dice, see what happens. It's not really that bad looking if it isn't taking over.
