I threw a few frags out that had hydroids growing on them it not worth the hassle, as for bubble algae emeralds or manual removal.

+1 for manual removal of the bubble algae. But carefully, you do not want to break any bubbles

i havent had that much success with emeralds. However i hear its hit or miss depending on each crab. They seem to avoid the larger bubbles as well so manual removal seems to be the only sure way unfortunately :\

I'm going to cut the frag apart and save what I can. Seems like the easiest way to deal with this.
