The Great Algae Escape is the eighth episode of Season 1.
Summary[]
There is lots of algae, a germ-like substance that is shown when the ocean is polluted. As the Octonauts try to find the source of the problem, suddenly lots of sick crabs and lobsters hijack the Octopod to find an area with less algae, and the Octonauts are outside trying to catch up with the runaway Octopod. Professor Inkling and the Vegimals are the only Octonauts on board the Octopod, but Barnacles and Kwazii managed to get in and stop the ship. The crew soon learns that the broken pipe they saw was leaking a bad chemical that made the algae grow and grow until there was too much. They go back and fix the pipe and clean up all the extra algae so the crabs and lobsters could go home no longer sick.
During the chase Inkling is trying to find a book about algae and ends up missing the excitement.

Creature Report[]
Creature Report Lyrics (Algae)[]
This green stuff is called algae
It grows all around the seas
Too much algae makes some creatures sick
They have to find new homes quick
Too much algae's caused by pollution
Cleaning up the water's a really great solution
