    My foxface neve touched bubble algae. Probably the only thing he didn't eat LOL. Regardless, any natural predator will break it open, which risks spreading it if the spores aren't skimmed out and the environment is good for it to establish itself.

    You got a long 6 months ahead of you. If you have 1 you probably have more. I'm at the end of fighting these things off.
