Fox Face for bubble algae control?
I am starting to have quite a bit of bubble algae gathering in my tank. I read that a fox face could be a good control for bubble algae. Anyone have any thoughts on this fish. I currently have mainly sps in my tank and the other animals are kole, tommini, marine beta, clowns, leopard, wardleys, fire fish. I do like the fish and would consider it as a long term fixture but I need to make sure it will be ok with what I have in my tank already as well as help with the bubble algae.

Mine has never touched the stuff. But they do great with regular algae. As far as I can remember don't think I've heard them messing with SPS, mine will some times nip at some of my xenia

it can eat all the xenia it wants. I can't remember where I read it eats bubble algae but I thought I did.
