I was at my LFS and saw this in one their tank with all their other mushrooms. The owner was calling it a south pacific ricorida and they wanted $75 for it i was like OMG sorry for the bad pic but this is the best i could get with my phone. are they out of their mind or is that what they really go for and what they were calling it was that correct ? It was bright pink with like purple bubbles on it and a bright green mouth.

Nice. Don't know if I personally would pay that for it, but it may very well be worth that to others. I would have to let it sit in their system for at least a week and make sure is wasn't going to turn out to be a melter before I bought it. Now if there are yuma nuts around your area and the chances of someone snatching it up before that time, then it would be a risk thing in purchasing it for that price, but by the looks of it I am not suprised that a price of $75 was placed on it.
You might ask if they would be willing to feed it. If a small morsel of F/T silverside sticks to it and it takes it in, chances are it is a healthy specimen.

thanks for the answer i wasnt looking to buy it i just thought it was cool looking and thought if it was cheap enough i would add it to my collection
but with that pricetag they can keep it. id rather spend the 75 on a bunch of frags of zoas anyway

Good call.
Let's try and work those rediculous prices down by not paying them then they will either not sell them or come down to earth in priceing them.
