Beautiful Blue Green Mushroom

[ash9965]

About 5 years ago I picked up a small blueish green mushroom frag that has now taken over the rock it was on .It has started dropping off some babies in the tank and I am thinking about possibly opening up to selling or trading some of them. If anyone can ID them please let me know also any advice on shipping would be greatly appreciated . My thoughts were usps flat rate 2 or three nice floaters 20 bucks shipped in the continental us, not looking to get rich just share some nice mushrooms. see picture attached .

I use craigslist, it helps me meet some of my local reefers as well. Price for the mushrooms a little cheap. You can charge higher

I know mushrooms are hardy, but I dont know if they will survive usps delays if you ship using the small flat rate box.

Shrooms can survive a nuclear blast

They look like discosomas (can’t tell you the exact species). I don’t think they’re worth a whole lot (probably $10-$20 per polyp, less if buying multiples). As far as shipping, I wouldn’t ship any corals unless it’s overnight, which is hard to justify the cost of shipping for a $20 mushroom. I would think it would be easier to sell them locally. You can post them here, post them on your areas local reefkeeping FB page (pretty much every area has one), and on Craigslist. You could also see about trading them into a local LFS, though you might only get store credit.
