Bubble Coral (Plerogyra sp.)

The MIMF Bubble Coral has some of the most unique growth of any large polyp stony. Soft, pillow like bubbles inflate around a ridged hard skeleton. Each swollen bubble has intricate lined striations and can come in a variety of colors from light green to creamy beige. This is a tough species, great for entry level coral enthusiasts because it prefers less direct flow and can tolerate a range of lighting and placement options inside the aquarium. Make sure to keep some distance between this species and other corals, as the Bubble Coral has elongated sweeper tentacles that can be aggressive.
