I have a Question about a Brain coral I have. I had three come in on some rocks I bought and two of them have like bubbles forming kinda lifting parts of it and it happened to two of them at the same time. With lights off you can kinda see its air bubbles lifting it seems.

I have noticed that is common for the ones I get on my rock.
 
Over time it seems to slow down :-)
I think they get algae within them during shipping that creates the o2
 
I was wondering if this could be from bumping up my Biopellets. I dont really have any reason why I bumped them up other than wondering the accuracy of my cheap test kit API and I do feed alot my Phosphates and Nitrate read zero so bumping up the Pellets might have not been a good idea
