Bubble coral growth

[Scallopking]

So here’s my bubble. Had this for I guess 5 months now. I spot feed it weekly mysis. I’m just wondering how big will a bubble coral get in the wild and how do they propagate? Will this shoot out babies or just keep getting bigger and bigger? I really love this coral and it gets long sweepers at night.

They get huge. There are some reefs that are dominated by Bubble coral. I have seen colonies that are larger than 2'.

Wow not prepared for 2’. Okay so down the road this is going to be an issue if it keeps getting bigger but such a nice center piece now.

Fragging a bubble coral

So my bubble has reached its limit and it needs to be fragged. It's not branching and too big for my lfs bandsaw. I could put the wheel on it but would like to heard some opinions or if you have experience please opine. First pic is when I got it second is now. Three yrs of growth and now...

My bubble and I believe most bubbles unless they're branching are more like a wall Coral sort of like a wall hammer compared to a branching hammer if it gets too big cut it LOL
