Hi guys I purchased rhodactis mushroom about 1.5 years ago and it started bouncing on me about 6 months in. I started propagating it and now have a few, I wanted to release some but I had no idea what to call it or what they're worth. Has anyone seen any like this? It looks like a berserker but way cooler. Let's think of some names!

I have some sunkists and those are the green skinned ones mixed in between. The ones im talking about are gold/orange skin and bubbles. I have them in low to medium light, I feed them often. I have some sunkists in high flow and those suckers have bubbles the size of a finger nail. I just have never seen my all orange/gold variety before.

They look awesome no matter what morph they are haha nice one on bouncing them. Is your schedule all blues? I've heard an ample amount of blue and uv causes bouncing

They are pretty awesome, I've been looking for a bit to see if there's anything like them. It's cool that is seems to be genetic instead of caused by prolonged exposure to a stressor, a baby popped out and looks like it has bubbles. I don't run my blues too high, I observed some bubbles forming and when I propagated them, the bubbles seemed to get more intense.

When I decide to start shipping I'll send you a pm! I would like to wait until it gets a bit warmer or see if there's interest locally. I just moved from Orlando to Naples area and it's a bit of a reefing deadzone.
Thank you !!
