Description

The Green Bubble Coral has grape-like polyps and can extend sweeper tentacles that emit a sting. These sweeper tentacles can reach up to 5 or 6 inches if it feels threatened by a neighboring coral. Placement can either be on the sand or rockwork. Green Bubble Coral differs from the rest of the group because of the striking green metallic coloration. The green coloration can range from very light to very dark shades of green. Depth of coloration depends on lighting and supplemental feedings. Green Bubble Corals may likely come to you in lighter shades than the picture provided, but will quickly color up providing the proper parameters and requirements are met. Bubble Corals prefer moderate light. (A good example of moderate light is a 65 watt light over a 25 gallon aquarium.)

Diet

Though these corals are mostly photosynthetic, they benefit from a small piece of raw table shrimp, frozen mysis shrimp or silverside once a week. After the lights turn out these corals will extend feeding tentacles and will quickly accept foods. Can be target fed with Kent Marine’s SeaSquirt Feeder, available in the Aquarium Supplies section of this website.
