Ricordea yuma

[MVS]

After changing my lights my Rics are starting to look somewhat retracted and less vibrant. Unfortunately, space in my 10g is limited so I really can’t move this piece to a shaded area where I’m sure it would thrive.

This piece was actually my first coral purchased over a year ago and has survived upgrades and a move to a new location; very hardy coral.

There’s around 9 heads. The one, as you can see from the pics below, that’s placed in a shaded corner of the tank is much more vibrant than the pieces in the direct light.

I have both before and after pics so you can get a feel of this corals potential.

I originally got this piece for $70. I’m thinking of selling it for around $50 or a good trade.

If you’re willing to pick it up today in Astoria queens let me know. My schedule it tight so the next day I’m available would probably be on Friday night.

If you’re interested in a pick up today call me at 718-909-7916

Almost 100%

When I initially purchased them I placed a few pics over at nano-reef.com and several experienced users identified them as rics.

 

[noodleman]

they look like rics to me :flower:

Plus, I've seen a few stores in Manhattan that were selling Yuma Rics and were the same color and pattern as these.

If anyone is interested please let me know. I want this coral to be placed in a tank where it could get the proper lighting.

I may have one potential buyer but if anyone else wants to hold a space just PM me.

I also wanted to mention that this sale is for pickup only in Astoria queens ? zip 11102.

Thanks!

These are ricordia yum.
Good luck with the sale.

I would also believe they are yuma's
at least from what I've seen, but I'm no scientist

 

[MVS]

thanks guys!

Again, I'm waiting on Trade to give me answere if he or she is willing to pick them up.

If not, let me know who else is interested.

 

[MVS]

The offer is still available if anyone is interested.

Hairy Mushrooms

Ricordias.


I think these are hairy mushrooms. From the pictures, it looks like they have the longer polyps that are very distinctive in hairy mushrooms. Rics have a much rounder looking polyps.

 

[Quang]

These are yuma's. I had green ones just like these that went through a similar transformation due to less-than-optimal lighting conditions.
Please, let the man sell his coral in peace. Free :bump: I guess.

They appear to be Ricordea yuma collected from the Pacific Ocean as opposed to the Caribbean Ocean. I have several of the exact morph.

 

[Deanos]

Mine just look better

 

[MVS]

LOL thanks guys!

If we can proceed, I'd really like to get these corals in the proper condition so if anyone wants to trade or purchase, please let me know.

Deanos - in a better state and under actinics or night lights, they did look the ones you've posted.

 

[ellebelle]

Okay, sorry, my mistake. It's a nice colony, no matter what they are.

 

[MVS]

Thanks
