You may not get much ID with that heavy blue light. Can you shine some white light on it? Even if it's a flashlight.

 

[NormanB]

Perhaps a mushroom.

The lights are off atm but here’s a still (bottom left) from a video I took this week, I’ll get a better pic tomorrow.

Okay...

Looks like a discosoma mushroom.

General ID? It looks like a Rhodactis mushroom to me.
Specific ID/market name? No clue...

 

[TnFishwater98]

Definitely a Rhodactis Mushroom

Rhodactis Yuma

Rhodactis Yuma

I thought Yumas were from the Ricordea genus, not Rhodactis?
Ricordea yuma is the scientific name.

Though both (or all 3 mentioned in this thread so far) are types of "mushroom corals", there is still a distinct difference, thus different genus for each, for Rhodactis, Ricordea, and Discosoma mushrooms.

So, the ID for the original posted picture would be Rhodactis rather than Ricordea yuma correct? It looks very much the same as your pictures here, which are Rhodactis mushrooms.

I also noticed that your first picture seems to include a Ricordea yuma as well.
Red circle is Rhodactis and blue circle is Ricordea?

That looks more like florida to me but I may be wrong

 

[Bucs20fan]

That is for sure a rhodactis mushroom.

With the blurry photo it’s hard but the blue photo appears to be a R. florida over R. yuma.

The Original photo is absolutely not a Ricordea species. They are instead of the genus Rhodactis, possibly a Rhodactis inchoata which can be sold in the hobby as Red/Orange Rhodactis mushrooms.

Yep, sorry for any confusion. I also thought it was R. florida in the picture, but quoted previous post about R. yuma.
I left off the species with the last question for this particular reason.

yellow/orange - Florida ricordea. Other Rhodactis

Rhodactis yes as originally thought.

Why do you think this is a Yuma?
