We have a Bubble coral(Pierogyra sinuosa) ourselves in our 72g. Normally, they are quite hardy and easy to keep. These corals do not require intense light nor high current. In the wild, they are often found on vertical substrate in caves. We've placed our Bubble on the bottom of our 72 in a shaded area. Additionally, we've placed as far as we could from other corals as these corals are highly aggressive. HTH
BTW, have you observed your coral at night? There usually is a marked difference in how these corals appear between day and night. At night their sweepers REALLY come out. Ours does.
