Also sold as BGM.
Collector tier: ultra, where the trade ranks it from common through grail. In stock at 3 surveyed shops on 2026-10-19.
Green body carrying large pink to red-orange eyes, the central corallites raised and warty rather than flush. The size and relief of the eyes against green is what separates it.
Before you buy one
Eye size only develops with maturity, so a small frag may not show the trait for a year. Provenance matters more than the photo. Descriptions of this one vary more than most, so treat a single vendor photo as one specimen rather than the standard.
Keeping chalices
Low light and gentle flow, where nothing can sweep it. Bubblegum Monster is intermediate to keep at a typical PAR of 50–120 in low to moderate flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral, not measured on this one.
What Bubblegum Monster goes for
No verified sales yet. A range publishes once 3 dated, checkable records from 3 different sources exist, priced per frag and reported as a median, with what shops ask kept separate from what buyers paid. One frag is a single cut on a plug, whatever its exact size. Colonies, mini colonies and mother stock are excluded rather than averaged in. Nothing on this page is for sale. Shops are typically asking $48 to $72 per frag, median $65, across 3 shops surveyed on 2026-10-19; the full sweep ran $31 to $80. Asking prices are what sellers want, not what buyers paid. On 2026-10-19 it was in stock at 3 surveyed shops: coralscoral.com, coralstop.com, topshelfaquatics.com.
