May, 2020 POTM contest - Ricordea!

[Mr_Knightley]

I believe those are Rhodactis, the subject of this contest is Ricordea. Beautiful shrooms though, nice pic!

Here's my entry (I think that this is a ricordia... lol)

- Nikon D90
- AF-S VR Micro-Nikkor 105mm f/2.8G IF-ED
- ISO 800
- ƒ/5.6
- 1/250s

The coolest thing about this coral is we had no idea we had it. It just started growing on this rock with our Fire Cracker Polyps.

The only true yellow and gray Ric I’ve ever seen and owned. Pics were taken with an iPhone 8 Plus and and Orphek Lens Kit with one of the filters. They multiply like crazy for the local reefer I got them from, but for me they are slow growers.

That's a Rhodactis indosinensis, super nice find! Too bad it doesn't qualify for the competition, I would vote that up in a heartbeat.

God bless!

Oops... just notice the part where it’s supposed to be a rocordia

How about this one... that “might” be a ricordia... this was a hitchhiker that came in on my live rock... he is kind of small and has not been positively ID’d as a ricordia...

That's a Ricordia for sure, just a young one. Keep it fed, and it should grow pretty fast!

I love these. They all look like those dipping dots that were popular way back never. Wonder if these would taste better
