Feeding a Bubble Coral
Hi All,
OK, let me start off by saying that I got a bubble coral completely by suprise. So I did not do any research on it. I got the 9 for $99 from Jeffs and somehow I got this coral as an extra 10th coral and was told it was OK to keep it. So, my dilema is feeding this thing. Where does the food go and what does it like? Thanks for any help. CaptK |

They will eat meaty foods such as Formula1 and raw shrimp. Small pieces (about the size of an eraser on a pencil) placed on the surface or tentacles once or twice a week. Leave plenty of room around this coral as they can expand to a very large size. They also have sweeper tentacles that can inflict a powerful sting to nearby corals if they come into contact with them.
HTH, Kevin

Feed your bubble as Kevinpo already said. The mouth is quite large and you'll see it once you feed it. My octo-bubble is EXTREMELY aggressive and eats anything I give it. The sweeper tenticles come out at night. My bubble has also consumed 2 unfortunate clowns who tried to make a relationship of it.
