Bubble Algae?

[joro]

I purchased these Acans last week and they have been doing very well since placed in our DT. They closed a little tonight at lights out and I saw these two green bubbles, is this bubble algae???

Yep. I have it in my tank too just make sure not to pop those bubbles underwater or else it will be everywhere

So what should I do to remove?

This youtube video explains it pretty nicely (Sorry I don't have any personal experience with this particular algae!) Let us know how it goes

If it's just that spot I would take rock out of the tank, remove bubble algae, squirt hydrogen peroxide on rock in that area, let sit a minute or two, rinse in saltwater, replace and monitor
