    I was wondering if I can make a rock with different rics on it like people do zoas? Can I add yumas in the mix also? Like can the whole rock be different colored yumas and different colored rics?

    really.rics ands yumas can move when they're to crowded? I didn't know that.are we talking physically move or just start growing in a different direction.I just recently purchased my first rics and now i'm dying for some yumas.Wanting to learn all i can about them.They both are pretty cool looking.

    I have both and really enjoy them.. If you get young ones they grow good..
    One of mine has 2 mouths and starting to split, And has doubled in size..
    IMHO, I would say just give them some room to grow..
    And yes, I have different ones on the same rock..
    Once a week or so, I put a little chunk of shrimp in the center of mine..
    Just for a treat..
    My mushrooms also enjoy some. And close as they eat it, really beautiful.. !!!

    They are Very Slow eaters. But seem to love it..

    That may not be for everyone..... JUST the way I do mine..

    Good Luck, you will enjoy them..
