LPS Coral
Green Pearl Bubble Coral.
An LPS coral whose grape-like bubble vesicles inflate by day to a soft green glow, then retract at night. Best for an intermediate reefkeeper — it wants gentle, indirect flow (strong current tears the bubbles) and moderate light, with room to expand.

Good tank mates
A large-polyp stony coral that inflates pearl-like vesicles by day and extends long, stinging sweeper tentacles at night, so give it wide clearance from all other corals to avoid stings. House it with peaceful reef-safe fish and invertebrates, but avoid coral-nipping fish and keep aggressive neighboring corals well out of reach of its sweepers. Pearl bubble corals are closely related to bubble and anchor corals and can fight with them, so don't crowd them together.
Good to know
Pearl bubble coral inflates its bubble-like vesicles during the day to soak up light, then deflates them at night to deploy long sweeper tentacles for catching food and defending its space.
