Title: Coral ID Help - Ric or regular Mushroom?
Post by: Wooki on January 01, 2011, 03:36:58 PM

I purchased some mature live rock from someone shutting down their tank, and it came with this mushroom on it. It expands to about 3 inches in diameter and I was wondering if it is a regular mushroom or some sort of ricordia?

I've attached a picture of it.

Thanks in advance.

The tips are bright green, even under normal lights. Not sure I would call them metallic green. I've had it for about 5 months, and when I first tried to ID it via Google, it wasn't clear. Cool to know it is a yuma.

Thanks all.
