I’m considering a Gonzo Golden Dragon mushroom. Some call it a bounce but I’ve only ever seen some with bubbles? Do they all bubble? What makes them bubble? And are they worth more if they do?

I have several of these, some have “bubbled” and others haven’t. Not sure what makes them do it, but I’ve only seen mine in the brighter light bubble. I don’t believe they are worth more, but I am not certain as every market is a little different. They have gone crazy in my tank. The market here is a little saturated in them so they go for about $25/head

Probably a little over a year. I easily have over 25 heads.

I have some unnamed purple Rhodactis that also sometimes has tiny bubbles on it. I've even seen Ricordea produce bubbles. I have no idea why that is.

Thanks, haha, maybe one day I will. They're isolated to a rock so new ones just pop off and land in the sand once in a while. Interestingly enough, I got them for free with rock from someone's tank tear down. Didn't even know there was anything living in the bucket, but these slowly popped out of the rock a few months after I put it in the tank.
Another pic to show what they look like in more white lighting.
