Care Guide
Bubble Coral (Plerogyra/Physogyra) is a hardy LPS known for its grape-like, fluid-filled bubble vesicles that inflate during the day to maximize light capture, then retract at night to reveal long sweeper tentacles. It prefers low to moderate lighting and gentle, indirect flow, and should be given ample space from neighboring corals.

Placement: Middle to lower rockwork with gentle flow — strong current keeps its bubbles from inflating properly. Leave 4-6 inches of space around it.
