Are the lights off in the tank right now?

 

[tuningvis]

no they go off in an hour

 

[thomas712]

Kinda looks like ricodia, but I also see some color to the tips so I don't think its majano.
What is your lighting? Or is that camera not doing your photos justice?
What is the camera?

96W quad
optio s50 5mp
just got it so still working at the pics... any tips

 

[bang guy]

Can you take a picture straight down on the polyp to see if the mouth flouresces green?

 

[tuningvis]

this is the best i can do bang ... but i can tell you it does not look green

 

[bang guy]

Sure looks like a R. yuma from that angle.
I really appologize for my first ID attempt.

 

[tuningvis]

no it's not a problem.... i'm just happy i got such a nice hitch hiker

 

[bang guy]

If the mouth never turns green then you might have a hairy mushroom. They look very similar. Still a nice hitchhiker.
I've never seen an R. yuma that didn't have a fourescent green mouth.
Even baby R. yuma have the tell-tale Flourescent Green Mouth:

 

[tuningvis]

do the hairy mushrooms come in purple and pinkish orange ?

 

[bang guy]

I've seen them that color, just the shape is a little different on yours.
Just be patient and let it grow up for you. It's a nice hitchhiker either way.
Perhaps it's some rare hydrid or something

ooo than i could sell frags of it for $1,000,000.34

i've been feeding it frozen brine shrimp thawed and shot into the mouth ...
thats good right ?
what else will make this sucka sprout
i've got 96w on it with the coralife quad light

It's sort of look like my mushroom. Some people have told me it's not ricordia, but I've seen places where they are identified as ricordia. But whatever it is, here's a pic...

 

[stupid_naso]

Here's another one. I'm not sure what mine is, but yours look exactly like mine, IMO.

[tuningvis]

i'd have to agree... stupid_naso
the tips look just the same....
so what is it.. that is the question

 

[bang guy]

Those look like Green Hairy Mushrooms to me.
