Big clear bubble on hammer coral? Help

[Afarouki]

What is this? Noticed during lights off. Seems to be on the mouth of the coral

Something to be worried about?

Did you drop any chewing gum in the tank? :grinning-squinting-face:
No idea - very weird. Gather this just appeared?

I'd give it a day or two and see how it fares.

It’s already gotten smaller so hopefully it’s nothing serious

I've been seeing the same with mine from time to time. Doesn't seem to be a problem.

Did it come into contact with a sweeper from another coral?

there’s another hammer coral like 6 inches away from it. Otherwise nothing near it. I thought hammer coral were ok to put close, but I’ll keep an eye out

Mine do it quite often!

It usually ends up that in a day or two the head splits into 2-3 heads depending on how it feels.

More bubbles = more growth :)
