bubble algae is partially normal and is in some tanks sought after and prized however it can spread rapidly and overcrowd things in your aquarium. u can manually remove them by simply scraping them off the rock. the red plant is most likely red macroalgae which isn't bad. as for the hair algae you can try cutting down on how long your lights are on or put more flow on your rocks.Posted 08-09-2009 at 11:00 PM by brett073
