That's what I'd do... but you won't have much luck siphoning them without popping them. But by doing it with the siphon hose, popping them really isn't a concern since you'll be sucking up all the spores. The key is to get the attachment point off the rock. If you don't, more will grow in its place.

And yeah... it's Bubble Algae.

That would have to be your best bet- You pop it and it spreads like Wild Fire...

I dont think its bubble algae, Bubble algae is dark green and shiny.

I think it may be this.

Is it connected to a root? Or are each bubble attached to the rock.
If each attached to the rock then bubble algae, If they have a root, Macro.

it kinda looks like that marco but it really really small and hard to tell for sure

I'm going to put my vote in for Bubble Algae. The shell looks too thin to be GC.
