Red Bubble Algae

[Jeremiah]

I have some of this type of bubble algae growing on a tonga branch, my emeralds won't touch it. I even managed to find a red emerald crab and it didn't touch the stuff either. I'm getting ready to work on manual removal since I don't want it in my tank. From what I can tell it spreads just like the green bubble algae, but looks much cooler.

So the point of this thread is, i know some of you collect different algae. Just letting you know that I have some and if you are wanting some let me know...free of charge.



edit: That thread was just a good picture that I could find of the stuff...that is not my thread. So ignore the part about flatworms in that thread.

I have some of this and it does not grow like the green bubble algae from my experiences. Sally lightfoots will eat this algae(Can also eat your fish if it is big enough).

So it doesn't spread through spores when popped?

I have popped several of them and it hasn't shown up like the green bubble algae does.
