I've seen my branching hammer look like that during a split.

Typically hammers, well euphyllia in general will form a bubble over the oral disk when they undergo a split. This process can take anywhere from 1-4+ weeks. One day you look at the coral and there is a bubble over it's mouth. Then seemingly weeks later it's gone and now there are two distinct heads visible when the coral retracts.
