help I have little green bubbles everywhere!

what should I do? I have an emerald crab.........

 

chocolate chip star fish if you have no corals for from my experience they are not coral safe but loved algea bubbles and allso had a taste for seaweed that i hung for my tang

 

How big is the tank. If it is large one emerald won't do much and there is more you can do. If it is small you can add a couple more emeralds and they should have an impact.

 

I've never had good success rates with emerald craps. Longest I've kept one alive is 7 months - i'd assume he ran out of food or something. My chocolate chip star has never touched a coral or even another invert before. He's content with detritus and extra food as he's been with me for over a year now.

 

I bought an emarald to eat green bubble algae on a really nice piece of LR. He never touched it. The green bubble algae kept spreading and I eventually had to pull out the rock. The emerald crab eventually died. I haven't seen it for about 6 months.

 

I have freakin bubble algae on one rock. I took it out the other day and scrubbed them off with a toothbrush in saltwater from a water change. I hope I don't have to toss it, as I have 3 mushrooms growing on it. I don't want an emerald crab, I've heard bad things about them - dude at the LFS had one given back to him after it mistook his home for a buffet and munched on an expensive fish.

 

my tank is a twenty long .... yeah the crab dissapeared somewhere have not seen it since I put it in.

 

emeralds dont come out much.
