I believe I read something about lacerations maybe? But I can’t find anything else. What causes it? Or is it growth? It has been like this for a long time now. I have had this since it was a one head frag
What are these bubbles on my acan?

I know acans changed names too but I still call them acans lol.
also I have a few acanmussa, and I’ve watched them sprout new heads, this bubbly stuff just looks different. They do bounce lol

They're basically joking that you've either got two corals or a "bounce" acan that would be potentially be valuable.
The only thing I can find on this condition is that it may potentially be caused either by some kind of high lighting (some people say LED's, others UV; it's basically thought to be similar to sunburn reaction in people) or by elevated potassium levels, and it doesn't seem to negatively impact the corals in any way (but the bubbles if popped are prone to infection):
Bubbling Acanthophyllia and Acan
Hi You'all, My Acanthophyllia and Acan are Bubbling. I've seen some information regarding bubbling happening due to certain lighting conditions. Can someone enlighten me on this topic, please?

Flesh bubbles on acan?
Hello, I noticed these curious little blisters on my acan which has been doing well otherwise for awhile. It has has been inflating very large during the day with good feeder tentacle extension at night or during feeding times. My other acan colony seems to be fine. Any ideas what this could...

Odd bubble in acan bower tissue
This acanthastrea bowerbanki has developed a large bubble in its tissue. It inflates with water during the day but shrinks back down at night. Any idea what is happening or what this is?

Anyone see this before? My Acans are getting the bounce growth seen on mushrooms? Pretty cool!

Bounce Acan
has anyone ever seen or have a bounce acan? I have had this frag for a few months and as it is growing it is “bouncing”. Check it out! Let’s hear some thoughts, cause it would seem there is little info on these right now. Pretty neat and a true new one on me!

Bouncing Acan?
Not really crazy about Bounce Mushrooms but my Acan has a bounce tumor on it and has had it since I got it. Just thought it was interesting with the bounce thing going on. What say you?

Bounce Acan? What could be causing this Phenomena???
Never seen a Acan that’s “bounces”... from what I’ve read about bounce mushrooms it could be the light but then again this could be one of those rare occasions...

Wow thanks for all of the info, I am going to read through all of that shortly. Bounce acan would be pretty neat. The bubbles do bounce in the current, which is cool.They're basically joking that you've either got two corals or a "bounce" acan that would be potentially be valuable.

Currently experiencing this. The Acan is visibly ticked off and has darker bubbles protruding. I thought it was bubble algea at first but now im reading through your links, very helpful, thanks!They're basically joking that you've either got two corals or a "bounce" acan that would be potentially be valuable.
