bubbles in my bubble coral

i have a odd bubble that is normal color with a green stripe down the center of each bubble. today i noticed that two of the bubbles have a small(<1/8") air bubble in them

what is it and how to fix it?

It is from the bubble coral not bringing enough water in itself to fully inflate the bubbles.
Mine does this to from time to time, it will be fine.
