I had success using Vibrant

If you are able, I took out the rock growing the bubble algae, picked off carefully with tweezers and also bought emerald crab. Worked for me, maybe start with emerald crab??

Siphon out what you can so you don't pop them when trying to remove them and look into emerald crabs and a foxface like mentioned by rzaktp.

Between my one spot foxface and emerald crabs, I have very few in the tank itself. A couple here and there. It tends to accumulate at the edges of the weirs and the tops of the return nozzles, but that's easy enough to remove. My wife actually likes the few bubbles in the tank. She says they look like pearls.

Ppl gonna hate on me....

But I take a Saturday morning and pop all dem suckers, run a UV light for several days along with a WC on Sat night

Vibrant is great but may have undesirable side effects on coral

Had amazing success with vibrant for reef. Twice a week. Also an emerald crab. Together they were a force to be reckoned with.
