Default Brown Bubble Algea
Does anyone know how to get rid of this stuff? google has not been helpful unless im entering the name wrong.

i'll post pictures in a bit, just figured I'd get a head start on the problem.

I can't see anything in your photo besides a brown blur. If you get an in-focus photo I will probably be able to ID it for you.

Looks like red valonia. No good way to get rid of it just start plucking or nuke the rock

k changed the upload size so when you click on the phote the picture enlarges. in this photo the algea in question are circular in shape similar to green bubble algea. however there are other pictures where the algea looked deflated like a squished jelly bean?
