Coral ID

Anyone know what kind of coral this is??

 

[BonnieB]

Trumpet/Candy Cane perhaps? Following because it’s a beauty and I’d love to know as well!

 

[fishguy242]

Rhodactis mushrooms ?

Rhodactis mushrooms ?

Oh yeah, didn’t think about them!

Rhodactis mushrooms ?

I agree, but maybe not, look at the main middle "shroom" there is a TIIINNYY little "shroom" above it, never have seen one that small

 

[Staghorn]

Actually kind of look like discosoma to me

 

[stE26wy14]

**looks like a *type* of shroom**

The mouth is a little small-ish, but look up pictures of discosoma neglecta and see what you think. They have unique edges/rims.

The guy did say he has a lot of mushrooms. He doesnt remember the name of the coral either, so I told him I would pass on that specific one since I dont know anything about it

Looks like wild fire. If you dont know how to control mushrooms that will get out of control...

Best thing you can do. Until you're ready to play with fire.

Rhodactis or neglecta, seems possible.

My guess is, it's part of the discosoma group.

Nebulas can. Not fuzzy like rhodactis. But, very deformed looking

 

[Aquadude1]

I would say discosoma neglecta as well.
Ive also heard them call umbrella mushrooms.

Yeah I chose some other mushrooms I can see, a leather, and a BTA. Going to trade for my grouper

 

[BristleWormHater]

I think these are discosoma neglecta as well, when I visited Spain I went to a fish store with a ton of these similar looking shrooms, the owner said they were discosoma
