I was sold this mushroom and was told it was a Sunkist bounce mushroom but it’s not looking like one to me. The first picture is a picture I took, and the second is the picture the seller sent me before he sold me the mushroom.

Those two look different from each other.
That’s what saying, they don’t even look similar. Do you know what type of mushroom this would be if it’s not a Sunkist bounce? I’m hoping I didn’t pay 70 dollars for a fake bounce

Not exactly sure on the name, but it is bouncing. Probably just a lower end bounce.

For $70 it’s still a cool mushroom.

is there any way this could be a Sunkist bounce? If not I’m asking for my money back or an actual Sunkist. There’s no orange or green on the shroom but don’t know if it will develop color in the future.

Not sure. Time will tell. Fwiw I’m not a huge Sunkist bounce fan but I do actually really like the mushroom you have haha.

Update, buyer said he is certain it is a Sunkist bounce and he is well known in my local reef-keeping group and has sold them to hundreds of people. If this is a Sunkist, does it look healthy? Do I need to do anything to get the oranges and green on the mushroom? All my other coral is doing great and my parameters are in check.

Very odd. Nothing you can do really to affect the bubble’s color.
