I got this as a gift from someone. Its about 8" long and the depth on it is about 4-5". This thing is a monster but what I was wondering is, how much of the bubbles are suppose to come out? Its only been in the tank for 2 days and all the bubbles come out but it doesnt look like their inflated to their fullest. By the size of this thing I would of thought it would of inflated alot bigger then what it is now. Just trying to get an outlook on my new coral. Im not for sure its a bubble coral but it would be my best guess. Hopefully it will open up more. Heres some pics

It looks good to me.Maybe just need some more time to fully expand.It is a Bubble coral.Some call the smaller polyp(bubbles) corals pearl coral(Physogyra sp.).
 
I agree with Freak. There are two types of bubble corals, one has much larger bubbles than the other. Yours just looks like the smaller kind (pearl).
