Nice mushroom
| Comments |
A coral I always wanted but couldn't find in any of my local fish stores. Can be found fairly easily online. I love the extra color the blue adds to the tank.

Very hard to glue to a rock.
The blue ones can be hard to find.

Another easy coral for the novice like myself.
| Comments |
These things are super easy to care for. They don't seem to mind to much about water quality either unless your tank is just a disaster. Not aggressive at all. Mine seem to shy away from other corals by closing up a bit but yours may be different then others. They grow pretty fast. You will notice a difference over a couple of months when it comes to the overall size. Not active at all other then opening and closing with the light cycle. Mine are in a stock 14 gallon aquapod. I paid $33 for mine at the LFS and it was a 3 x 4" flat rock with about 7 mushrooms on it.

Awesome coral. Very easy to maintain and very beautiful. Mine are a deep blue with a bit of purple in them. Like I mentioned before they seem to be very easy to care for.
They are also very easy to propagate after doing some research. Simply cut them up like a pizza and use a piece of a pair of panty hose to wrap around the rock with them between the rock and the hose. I honestly would not waste your time with propagation because they seem to reproduce pretty quickly with moderate flow and good lighting but nothing to intense cause if the lights are too bright they tend to close a bit.

I don't like the fact that they you have to put them into a less flowing area for them to stay fully open. Too much flow on them and they close up a bit. Some people may not like the fact they reproduce fairly quickly and can see where they could become a problem

Very beautiful mushrooms...

I've got some of these blue mushrooms and they are incredible. They have a nice blue/purple color under brighter lights. They seem to multiply fairly quickly and add a lot to a display.

Can be difficult to get them to attach to live rock.

Good beginner coral
| General |
Great starter, just watch how fast it spreads. |
| Liked about it |
Very hardy, low light requirements, tolerant of less than perfect water quality, easy to frag
|
| Didn't like |
It can become a pest due to how fast it spreads.
