Actually it's pretty common. I've seen my hammers, torches and even Aussie elegances do it now and then. Nothing to be concerned about. Just keep an eye out for brown jelly.

Great, thanks for all the replies. It seems to deflate in the evening again and was quite large during the day today as well. I usually don't mess with anything until I find out what's up, so no, I won't be poking at it.

As far as branching, I don't think that's what is happening since the bubble is emanating from the 'mouth' in the center. Both this small 3 headed frag and the mother colony are growing small sports along their hard/calcified skeletons. It's not a polyp that's doing the bubble, just the 'mouth'. My BTA was doing a similar deal (for quite a long time), thought I was going to lose it, but it's looking better than ever these days.
