Bubble algae , it’s a pain to get rid of but emerald crabs eat it if you can’t take out the rock and scrub it off

Welcome to r2r.

I second what Scotty said and add that removing with teasers then a toothbrush dipped in peroxide to sanitize where bubble attached to rock. If you burst the bubbles in the water, you may well be inoculating your water with spores.
