I have 3 polyps of Blue Ricordia and I'm wondering if they will outgrow the rock, and lay on the substrate. My sub is Aragonite.

One is kind of moving on it, but he hasnt moved in a while. I'm just curious really, nothing of great importance

I had some mushrooms partially move onto the substrait when their rock got kind of crowded, but they didn't seem to like it too much as the foot wouldn't split and reproduce more shrooms. I just put a few more rocks around the one that was crowded, put a few of the shrooms on it and now they're splitting and I have a bunch of little ones poping up on the new rocks. Now these were green stripped mushrooms and not ricordia, but I'd assume they'd behave much the same way. Nice ricordia by the way.

thanks...i'll try splititng the rock and putting it on another larger rock to help them disperse

Darn Uni is down (AGAIN) so the pictures are in and out (they arent bad links to anyone who wonders)

since I cant edit my two previous posts......lemme say that I will get a new picture of the mushrooms on their new rock up sometime

My digital camera sucks for taking pictures, it seems to take them with too little contrast, but yet to much brightness sometimes.

Definitely get some new pictures, I'd be interested in seeing them.
