Ricordea mushroom

[kevgib67]

Hey, just a quick question. Do ricordea mushrooms bounce ( right lower side)? If not does this one need to see an oncologist? It does smoke 3 packs of Lucky Strikes a day.

No, but I have seen certain varieties develop large polyps. The portion in question doesn't actually look like a ricordea - so I'm wondering if it's another type of coral?

Yes, both Florida and Yuma can show puffy vesicles.

R. florida (left side, 6" shroom)

R. yuma (pink, slightly center left):

Was wondering about this. Bought a ric online a while back and it had large “bubbles” when it came in. it has since split and both appear to have “bounced”. Assume it’s just a type or does something cause this?
