Anyone have a quick and easy fix to get rid of bubble algea? I have a small patch growing on one of my best pieces of rock.

this is what i did.. it came on a piece of coral i had bought.. and during one of the water chages.. i took the piiece out, and took a little knife and popped it off in the bucket of water i already took out of the tank. that way spores dont go into your tank and you are dumping the old water anyway.. i just held the coral over the water and popped them off.. then replaced the coral in its spot.. havnt seen a bubble since. also got an emerald crab and they are good at eating the starting of bubble algea.. so he is either doing his job or there just isnt any remains of that algea in my tank
