Green Bubble Hard Coral (Plerogyra sp.)

(Also known as Green Bubble Coral, Pearl Coral, or Grape Coral)

Overview

The Green Bubble Coral (Plerogyra sp.) is a captivating large-polyp stony (LPS) coral recognised for its large, inflated bubble-like vesicles that shimmer with a distinctive green or metallic hue under aquarium lighting. Each bubble expands during the day to absorb light and contracts at night to reveal long, feeding tentacles. This coral’s unique texture, colour, and motion make it a standout centrepiece in any reef aquarium. While hardy and forgiving, Plerogyra requires low flow, moderate light, and ample space due to its delicate tissue and long sweeper tentacles.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Coral Sea, Fiji, Tonga, Indonesia, and the Great Barrier Reef. Found in sheltered reef slopes and lagoon environments, often attached to rubble or within crevices where flow and light are moderate.

Feeding

The Green Bubble Coral is photosynthetic, containing zooxanthellae that supply most of its nutritional needs. Supplemental feeding encourages growth, tissue expansion, and vibrant colour. Offer 1–2 feedings per week of:

  • Mysis shrimp, brine shrimp, or finely chopped seafood
  • Marine snow or coral plankton blends
  • LPS-specific coral foods

Feed when tentacles are visible (usually after lights dim). Gently target feed near extended polyps for best results.

Lighting

Low to moderate lighting.Plerogyra prefers subdued, indirect illumination to prevent bleaching or overexposure.

  • PAR range: 75–150 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Avoid direct, intense light; shaded or lower-tank areas are ideal.
  • Blue and actinic lighting enhances its fluorescent green glow.
Water Flow

Low to moderate, indirect flow. Gentle, consistent movement helps remove debris without damaging the inflated vesicles. Strong flow can tear the coral’s delicate tissue or cause it to retract for prolonged periods.

Placement
  • Place on sandy substrate or in low-flow, shaded areas of the lower rockwork.
  • Ensure plenty of space (15–20 cm / 6–8 inches) around the coral — it extends long, stinging sweeper tentacles at night.
  • Avoid sharp rock edges that could puncture its soft bubbles.
Tank Mates

Reef safe with caution. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (clownfish, gobies, tangs, blennies, etc.)
  • Reef-safe invertebrates such as snails, hermits, and shrimp
  • Other LPS and soft corals placed at a safe distance

Avoid:

  • Aggressive or stinging corals (e.g., Euphyllia, Galaxea, Hydnophora)
  • Butterflyfish, large angelfish, or puffers that may nip at its tissue
Aggression

Moderately aggressive. At night, Plerogyra extends long, powerful sweeper tentacles capable of stinging and damaging nearby corals. Provide ample spacing to prevent chemical or physical conflict.

Experience Level

Beginner to intermediate. Hardy and adaptable when placed correctly, the Green Bubble Coral is suitable for aquarists with basic LPS experience. It thrives in stable reef environments with consistent lighting, gentle flow, and good water quality.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Hardness (dKH): 8–12
  • Calcium: 400–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: <10 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 75 gallons (280L) for stability and adequate spacing

Maintain stable alkalinity and calcium to support skeletal health and bubble tissue regeneration.

Reef Compatibility

Reef safe with caution. The Green Bubble Coral is a beautiful, peaceful showpiece that adds volume, texture, and colour to LPS or mixed reefs. With careful placement and moderate lighting, it can thrive for years, inflating fully each day to display its radiant green shimmer.

I need to make sure the kitchen doesn't look so messy.
Color: Black, Color: Black
Look, this sponge holder is the kind you stick to the wall so you don't have everything lying around in the sink. Honestly, it does the job: it keeps the blue sponge and the metal scouring pad in place so they're not soaking in water at the bottom of the sink. ✔️ The good • It looks clean and keeps everything more organized. • The metal basket is well-designed; nothing falls out. • The sponge dries faster because it's ventilated. • It doesn't take up any counter space; everything hangs neatly.

Great little organizer
Color: Grey, Color: Grey
I was tired of having my sponge and scrubbers all over the sink, so I gave this a try—and it actually works really well. The suction cups are strong and haven’t fallen off, even when the basket is full. It holds my sponge, brush, and steel scrubber with no problem. The stainless steel feels sturdy and doesn’t rust. Super simple, but it makes my sink area look much cleaner. I’m really happy with it!

Do Not Recommend
Color: Black
Caddy falls off every other day. Suction cups are visibly ugly and prevent caddy from hanging higher. Poor design and overpriced.
