Added this recently. A different species to my other mushrooms.

No idea. The pattern looks different to the rhodactis I have
That's because you have yourself a fancier rhodactis. From what I know, there are a few "morphs", you have a pin cushion rhodactis, which have pillowlly polyps. There are Persian rug rhodactis which have spikier polyps that are larger sized, the more common orange rhodactis which I believe are bulleyes rhodactis from the tonga area and smaller in size than the pin cushion or Persian rug types, and then there are the hairy Aussie rhodactis that have a more St Thomas Mushroom look to them.

The net of it is that you scored a more desired type.

Store did say it was a rare one
 
It's on the bottom but beneath a Hydra 32. Should I move it to the side away from that intensity?
Is it still closed up/ tight like in the photo? If so, then it's receiving too much light and would do better with less light. IT should fully open up and be puffy like in this photo (not the exact same mushroom, but it should have the same care).
