🚨 IN YOUR TANK
You have 2 susceptible animal(s): 🪸 Acropora SPS, 🪸 Hammer Coral.
Bright green spherical bubbles that grow on rockwork. Relatively harmless in small numbers but can spread rapidly and crowd out corals. Bursting the bubbles spreads spores — must be removed carefully.
🔍 IDENTIFICATION
Shiny, bright green spheres 2–25mm diameter attached to rock. Often found in clusters. Distinct iridescent sheen distinguishes it from normal algae.
🛡 PREVENTION
Dip coral frags before adding
Manually remove any bubbles spotted early before they spread
Keep phosphate and nitrate balanced — high nutrients fuel growth
