Cant, its too much rock. Its been in the tank for years and im not taking down the whole rock scape.
On a quick aside, how do you like the Mach-E
Unfortunately its not and im on 7 or 8 weeks of vibrant. It has definitely affected the bubble algae but it hasnt died off yet. So im hoping a few more weeks and itll die off.
Ive been using it for 2 months. It cleaned up everything else. I have found a bubble or two so yes and no for how good it works. it is not spreading or growing any since using it.
Love it, it's my first EV and have 7k miles on it so far. Can't believe I used to go to a gas station every 4 days to fill for $80, now $80 worth of charge gets me 1 month of commuting.
Was in the same spot, pulled the rocks I could but to get all of them would have been a tear down. I used the recommends amount and did 20% water changes every 10-15 days on a 35gal tank. Saw the bubbles losing color after about 2-3 weeks. I'm 3 months in and 95% of it's gone.
I think im gonna give these guys a try. Emerald crabs didnt help, but im always down to try new critters and i like having invert diversityPitho crabs cleared out the little bit I had.

They're very active and hard workers. I've been very impressed at how much utility they bring. They eat a wide variety of algae. If they aren't eating they're sifting through the sand and rocks releasing detritus. They are decorator crabs. Today was the first day I noticed one had fragged a single paly polyp to decorate himself with. I've seen them decorate themselves with sand, sponges, cyano, GHA, and even a bristle worm. Just a fair warning.
