ok so I was at my local fish store and they had bought out someone’s corals and the person had tons of large Ricordea Mushrooms that just added to the coral tank he hadn’t priced them so he just shot me a low price can anyone answer these questions
1. Does it look happy ( its hanging off the rock looks a lot bigger than it was in there tank might have some flow on it not really sure just want to know if it’s ok for it to be bent up like that and hanging off the rock and dropping down )
2. Can you help me Id
3. What’s the normal price on a mushroom like this
 
It sure looks happy to me!

Looks like an orange Ricodea Yuma. I doubt there are any fancy names that carry any meaning with this piece.

I've seen these (full size) go from $30-50 CAD (so probably $25 and up USD). Pricing usually depends on the exact colours, as well as the size.
 
It's Ricordea yuma, the Indo-Pacific species. Typically harder to keep than Ricordea florida. It looks comfortable enough there. The coloration is very typical for a yuma and you can often find rocks covered in them for sale, so perhaps $30 for the one?
 
Here’s the mushroom today looking good hope It starts to pop off baby’s

Will I moved it this morning for some reason I just don’t think it hanging over and dropping where there’s nothing for it to lay on off the other side it wasn’t healthy I guess I will move it back to this place when I get home
