Good evening fellow Maastards,

I am in the process of re scaping my tank after not doing much with it after the move to our new house (finishing up school, wedding, honeymoon, settling in, etc...). I picked up a few pieces of new rock from ryanmoorman (thanks again!) and would like to get rid of a few of my current pieces to help make room.

I have for sale the following 8-9 lb rock with at least 15 heads of ricordea yumas. These guys have grown and multiplied VERY quickly in my tank and are nearly impossible to kill (one of my few corals that survived the November tank move). Some of the larger ones at full extension get to about 3.5" in diameter, the smaller ones are around 1-2.5". The rock is a cool shape with a "foot" protruding from the bottom that can act as a stabilizer, especially if placed in a corner.

Under Metal Halide lighting only:

I am asking $100 OBO (will also consider trades).


Thanks for looking!

can't believe this hasn't sold yet....that's a steal and those look like yumas. Hairy/frily mushrooms get much larger before splitting.

free bump for you Chris.

just saw this comment: "larger ones at full extension get to about 4" in diameter", so maybe you are right in that they are hairy mushrooms...nice ones if they are

sure. You have an 8 or 9 lb LR. I have some coral you can pick out. I am available before 4 today. I am busy after 4 today but have off tomorrow.

I found homes for some of my coral but I have some left. Look at my profile with pics and see if you like something. lmk

So, I've been informed that I was originally misinformed about what these corals actually are. I was under the assumption that they are hairy mushrooms, when in fact they are yumas... might change the game a bit.

Here are some close-ups under T12's:
