Hrm , bubble algae ( pics )

[Versus]

I wont get into it to much but , I left away . gf took care of the tank . skimmer crapped out , too many nutrients , bubble algae decided to be my new aqua scape destroying all of my corals and only leaving a couple items that were softies .

I have 10 emerald crabs and have had them in there for 2 months , they have not done squat.


My question is , I would hate to cook this amount of rock shooting 450 in rock down the drain because of some algae seems harsh . Scrubbing , well heh as you can see this is near impossible .

What are some alternatives ? could i remove the fish , remaining softies then totally black out the tank and deprive it of any nutrients ?



I need a fairly fast method as my gf who screwed up the tank wants it pretty by xmas .




even the male clown fish is asking for your help , look at his lil face in both those pictures. dont let him down or he will cry
