How fast does your bubble coral grow?

[Chris86]

Just wondering. My wife got one, but it's only about 3 inches across. It looks cool, and I hope it grows quickly.

@saltyfilmfolks has a monster, I remember reading about it and it's growth in a thread recently.

Maybe he can chime in with a link!

Mine has doubled in size since I got it. A little bigger than a baseball

Wow!

Wow!

This one is in my 29G Biocube. I am thinking of transferring it to my 75G so that it can have room to grow. Here is a full tank shot.

Can bubbles be fragged?

 

[slipknotgrrl83]

I want to say no as they are fragile and soft but not entirely sure myself

 

[saltygoat]

Not sure id call it fragging but I bought a large piece about a foot wide that had developed into three crescent shaped colonies from 1 mother colony and was able to cut them between the ridges and all are happy and doing well

What did you cut them with? Did you dip them afterwards?

 

[saltygoat]

I used a chisel and hammer. And no I didn't dip them. Had them in my tank for about a month before I decided to split them

mine grows crazy fast! I had to put it in lower light to slow it down and it is still growing pretty quickly but manageable now
