Joe's Juice works fine (I think it's just kalk paste so you could also make your own) for the visible ones. I would consider a couple of peppermint shrimp for your tank. They will eat all the one you...

looks like a red bubble algae to me. If you can remove it without popping it I would do so. I get them every once in a while and they have never become a problem for me however.
