    This little guy hitchhiked onto one of my other corals and the lfs didnt realize it when I bought it at the time but anyways it is starting to reproduce now as it has split in two. I just need to know what the heck it is because I might be able to take the frag for a trade in for a type of ricordea.[​IMG][/URL][/IMG]

    Hairy Mushroom? I dont think it is a hairy mushroom, its a mossy green never been partly brown has a tan underbottom with what almost looks like spikey bubbles on it. and bubbly spikes on the tips of it. Pic quality isnt that good.

    I dunno about a hairy mushroom, but it does look like some type of a mushroom to me.
