I had a bad infestation in my tanks (probably in excess of 1000 bubbles). I did three things to get rid of it:
- set up 40g refugium with GREEN macroalgaes (prolifera and Chaeto), red macro (gracilaria) and the lights are on 24/7
- sailfin tang
- rabbitfish

Emeralds didn't do anything for me - threw in 8 of them and they slowly died one by one. And unfortunately the last two fishes both usually get too big for most people's tanks.
