That I would agree with.

I've never had anything that gets rid of bubble algae other than my hand with a pair of tweezers. The fox face used to eat it if I lost grip and it went into the water column, otherwise it would swim right past it.

Bubble algae is the reason I acid bathed my rock.

I've been just scraping it off the rock and letting it go into the filter sock. The MI will eat it if it's floating, but nothing eats it attached. Even emeralds. So far I'm making good headway like this, as long as you keep nutrients down, it slows and eventually stops growing.

So I got in a group buy from Fragbox with a few buddies. Figured I'd post a couple pics.

West Coast Coral Illuminati patiently waiting for delivery last night.



Pretty sure we broke some pieces during unbagging.



Quick dip, can't go wrong. Everything nice and clean, typical with FragBox!



Lots of tank talk going on. Secret society stuff.



Illuminati member 1 fixing his bandsaw. Coral Illuminati plotting world domination.



Mad cutting skills. Illuminati member 2 had to take over.



1/3rd of the way done. Thanks Illuminati member 1 for hosting, Illuminati member 2 for airport pick up, and March from Fragbox for some amazing tank candy.



This morning.

Dried fish is a tasty Asian delicacy. I advise you to release your inner Asian.

Naso is a lot big for a 65! I was just listing what I've had success with.
