Default Bubble Algae

Hey everyone. Got home from work today and noticed that I have some bubble algae growing in my tank. I figure it's because I have been slacking with my maintenance routine over the last couple of weeks. Can't get motivated to do it when all that sunshine is calling my name outside.

It's a 29gal tank that has been running for 3 months, with 35lbs live rock, 2 ocellaris clowns, 1 lawnmower blenny. 30" dual coralife pc lights - 130watts I think, 1 10,000k bulb, 1 actinic. Kooralia 1 powerhead and ehiem 2224 canister filter.

Anyway, I read the articles in the library about getting rid of it, but I was wondering what everyone on here has has success with? Manual removal? Predation? Chemical? What is the best way to get rid of it and make sure it doesn't come back? (Besides being more diligent with my maintenance)

Thanks for the help.
