Coolest mushroom under ~$200?

[LivinTheSwreefLife]

I'm starting a pico tank where every inch of space will count as far as coral real estate. I want to add shrooms, but I don't want to spend an exorbitant amount.

Can anyone recommend a really cool shroom that won't break the bank? Or at least will break it less lol? My favorite shroom right now is the LRO Maui wowie and honestly I'm ok with spending a lot on corals, but I'm too nervous to spend that much when I've never done a pico before. All my experience is with larger tanks so I want to be safe with early purchases, but also don't want to buy things I don't like and have them take up space in such a tiny tank

This price seems a bit high (not that I sell a bunch of coral) but I thought more towards 80 bucks

Thanks, I'm currently cycling so not looking to buy at this moment, but I like to plan ahead what exact pieces I will target/shop for later

You have plenty of option for $200 , reef koi, sunkrist, etc

The hairy mushrooms can be fun and lots of texture. I also like your standard purple, blue, red discosoma. Ric are nice and colors pop. I really like the ironman one I got. It is so bright orange/red.

I do not get into the names. Sorry. I only know the ironman one cuz I just bought it. For its color.

Plain ol red, orange disco pop really well under royal blue led lighting so do many metallic green rodactus inexpensive and hearty well suted for an immature system

Frankenstein - my most expensive, paid 150$. About the size of a nickel, has been growing nicely. Colors are also getting better!

Yuma - about the size of a nickel. I paid 30$ From a shop. Very nice..

golden gonzo - picked up from live sale on R2R paid 60$. Looking good.

Baby OG when I got it it was eraser size and transparent. Color speks now showing as bubbles. Paid 100$.

juggernaut. Picked up at live sale on R2R. Paid 100$. Was huge and natural split in the first 2 weeks of owning.

Sunkist Bounce- paid 100$ Picked up from a shop, had 2 quarter sized shrooms. Had since November have found a baby.

I’m sure there is plenty more awesome mushrooms out there but these are mine and I couldn’t be happier. good luck with your decision. I’m looking forward to seeing which way you go!!
stay safe..R
