My hammer coral has developed a large clear bubble. It comes and goes. The coral otherwise seems to be in good health.
I have several pieces of this hammer coral around my aquarium. All of them are doing fine. Only one head has formed this structure.
Any idea what it is?

It’s just an indication that’s splitting. Nothing special
Can you give more information on this?

I've never seen this before on any splitting euphyllia. Only seen it on a torch that had fallen and damaged the flesh around the skeleton.
