larnie Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 These are a couple of Ricordea Yumas that I recently picked up. Are there any concerns regarding the proximity of their placement together in my tank? Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 very nice. you'll be happy to know that they usually coexist together quite well. besides, if they didn't would you know how to move them. i'll put a blade on almost anything except my ric yumas. Link to comment
larnie Posted December 3, 2004 Author Share Posted December 3, 2004 I'm glad to hear that. However, these two Yuma's are on seperate pieces of Tonga so I can put them wherever I like. How many of you suppliment feed your Ricordea? What have you been successful in feeding them? Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 mine will eat mysis shrimp and also raw shrimp. Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 I have some of those exact varieties... I love yumas. Link to comment
Cesar Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Man I love ricordeas, I would do a full tank of ric's if it was up to me. Link to comment
SaltyDawg Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 The orange ric in the lower left is a florida orange ric. not a yuma. I have five of them my self. Nice rics though. Link to comment
larnie Posted December 7, 2004 Author Share Posted December 7, 2004 Hey Dawg, What makes you believe the orange is a florida? It has the characteristic verrucae surrounding its oral opening with a more irregular size to its verrucae throughout when fully expanded. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 that doesn't look anything like a ric florida. My vote is still yuma...nice yumas, btw! hehe. Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 is your avatar the same one as the one from the pic at the top? the one in the avatar looks like ric yuma. from the original pic, the ric sort of looks more like ric florida (small mouth, no verrucae on mouth). got a better pic?

larnie Posted December 7, 2004 Author Share Posted December 7, 2004 The avatar is a different ricordea, not my own. I have tried to get a closer look at the mouth in this picture. I believe that this ricordea is the result of a division by laceration (cut). The mouth is not yet fully formed, yet verrucae are evident. In addition you can see new verrucae forming on the mouth.

Tigahboy Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Yeah...I'm still going w/ yuma. Link to comment
EtOH_is_good Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 i also agree that in the new pic it looks like ric yuma. can really tell in a couple months. who would cut a nice yuma like that? lfs? the green yumas that i have are meant for division experimentation. any hints on cutting mine? can you pm the location of the pink yuma pic or even send me it? i want to add it to my yuma pic collection.

SaltyDawg Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 FLORIDA RICORDEA. I will post a pic of mine in a new thread in this forum for you to see. I have the EXACT SAME RICS. The green one is any ones guess but the orange is definately a floridian mushroom ricodria. Link to comment
