I've had these big 6" green mushrooms with pink blobby tips around the edges and top. Been selling them for 25$-30$ a head as ricordea, but they dont look like your usual flordian shroom. Thoughts on subspecies, and price?

Def not ricordea. Tentacles are not bulbous enough and way too big. Looks like green rhodactis.
 
I have many and the multiply really fast in my system, and when it's stressed it can shrink to 1/4" when expand.... over 3"-3.1/2
 
Does 25/30 bucks seem fair? The biggest one I have atm is almost as big as a tea saucer o.O 6"
 
Hairy mushroom aka carpet mushroom
 
probabl

y yes, here in UK they start from £15 up to £45 ( GBP ) in US probably the same but in USD
and That's really big, never saw my to expand that much (probably because of the room space between them)
 
Steal at that price. Ricordia which are at most 2” go for $20-30.
Hmm.. oh well. This coming from the guy who's been selling mint trumpet coral frags eith 6 polpys for 15$. LFS told me today I could trade them in for 5$ a polyp :O

I'm sitting on well over 200 polyps. AHHH
 
Surely these brown ones are ricordea... although, nobody is as interested in them as they're a bit drab and only seem to get to 2", mostly under 1". 15$ for 5ish polyps?
