ECLS Reefer Posted August 12, 2020 Author Share Posted August 12, 2020 Just now, mitten_reef said: I thinkĀ Yuma comes from the pacific, and the other -Ā ricordea florida -Ā is from the Caribbean. Ā There are a few distinct differences. RicordeaĀ Yuma behaves more like traditional mushrooms, walking and dropping babies as they go.Ā it has bubbles all the way into the center AND up the side right up to its mouth piece (nipple?). The bubbles are also a little bit more organized/patterned,Ā if you could call it that. Ā Ricordea Florida,Ā on the other hand, grow in clusters. The picture above is likely of one big cluster (shared the same base/foot).Ā And they take their sweetĀ time splitting. I have one mushroom that is a single piece, that has three mouths on it for months now. Ā The center and mouthpiece is smooth.Ā Photos from cultivated reef.Ā Ā Yeah I guess it is a Yuma. That orange one is purtyĀ Quote Link to comment

The one the fish killed flashing around it and kicking sand in it constantly was gorgeous too- wish it had pulled a life out of the rabbits hat. Mostly Iām just soooooo unhappy at the lifelessness of the tank and the algae growing in. Nobody likes seeing GHA show up and I have WEEKS before I can get a fish in there to mow it down šššššš Quote Link to comment

Guest Posted August 19, 2020 Share Posted August 19, 2020 Beautiful Coral! Hopefully thingsĀ will get better soon, I am leaving my tank for the first time since setting it up, and am nervous as heck. Quote Link to comment

And thereās a massively lazy Halloween hermit in there. I have an order coming from Reef Cleaners Thursday and if it survives (I hate HATE the three day mail shipping- id pay the over night fee to make sure stuff survives but canāt choose that) I think thereās an emerald crab in the order. I didnāt get a big package- got one for a 25g with intentions of splitting it between the three tanks. May not need to though. I picked up two redline conchs the other day and they are slooooooow. May swap them out for the conchs in the RC order and put them in the big tank. Otherwise got some more small blue legs and maybe theyāll help keep the algae at bay. And some astreas. Hopefully they work and donāt starve.Ā Quote Link to comment
