Is this Ricordea dead?

[jeanne]

Hi. I ordered a package from Aquarium Depot (no negativity please as I have heard about them from several people now). The package came with a ricordea in it. Can someone please tell me if it is too late for this little guy?

im sorry but i dont see anything. if there was a ricordea on the rock it'd be there lol. the mushrooms that die usually melt. and disappear so i think that is the case here

All i see is a bit of rock glued to a frag plug.

It's actually really soft so it's not a rock.

There is no rock there at all.

A better focused photo similar to your second picture would help. Otherwise it's hard to tell what we're looking at.

How old is the reef? It doesn't appear to be ready for coral due to the bad diatom that can be seen. Is the green thing a fake coral?
From the looks of your frag, I don't see a Ricordea at all.

I think what everyone thinks is a piece of rock is the mushroom.

Did it come in with cloudy water or was the water clear?(there is no ricordea in the picture you're posting) But if the water was cloudy its proof that at one point there was one there
