    I was looking online trying to find something 'different' to put in my tank....

    Has anyone ever had any tonga mushrooms like these?

    InsaneCorals.com: Tonga Mushrooms

    I have vho's ... was wondering if they'd do good under them..and if these kind multiply pretty fast? I haven't seen any like these at my LFS ... so they really caught my eye.

    Thanks for any info...

    Rhodactis family of mushrooms. There are plenty more cooler looking ones in the same species of mushrooms. I think they are the most unique.

    Mushrooms in my opinion are really a favorite coral of mine, as well as polpys. The reason is that, if you buy one and put it near a rock, eventually the whole rock will be covered with the coral. After a while it really gives the tank a nice natural feel.
