Question about my ricordia mushroom

[Reefing_addiction]

Got this guy yesterday. Was wondering is that two mouths?
How do this things multiple? Do they split? How do they have babies?

to feed or not to feed?

They do split and may be two mouths and not unusual as mine do the same

How do they split? I know some will move and leave little pieces or do they split like btas?

A mushroom coral will get large and split itself down the center and through the mouth, forming two mushroom corals instead of one.
Budding: Your mushroom coral will form a tissue particle off itself. This particle will grow into a new mushroom coral. You can also propagate your own mushroom corals pretty easily.

They split but I always found that Ric Florida are slow to split.

Thank you! Don’t think I’ll be propagating him any time soon. But good to know
