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.

Never seen anything like that. can I buy one ?

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.

Definitely a rhodactis. Never seen one with the “bounce”. Truly amazing

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.
