The tips on mine usually turn white during growth periods. I would keep an eye on it and make sure you don't see any tissue recession. If the tissue starts to recede then it's time to act. Otherwise continue monitoring.

I've seen this where corals have encrusted over damaged areas. My Valida is doing where my anemone stung it.

Its hard to tell what you call blistering... My stylo is one of the fastest growing corals I have... On mine the tips are almost always white from new growth.

My stylo constantly has with bumps at tips. Sometimes the white bumps form in unexpected places where the coral decides to branch. If you don't see white tips, you see slow growth.

Yes i know what the white ends mean , this is not growth , this is like a blister or bubble that forms or is inflated , its almost transparent .!!
