Pysogyra or Plerogyra?


I can't figure out if my new coral is a bubble or a pearl coral. As far as I can tell from reading Boreman's Coral book is the size. Can anyone tell the differnce for me?

thanks
Brett

I vote Pearl. (My first coral, actually.) The pearls are characteristically that pale pink color, and have smaller, odd-shaped bubbles.

I vote octabubble (spelling?) but the smaller bubbles are a give away in my book but I may be wrong
