Everyone has to learn Yuma is a type of Ricordia, the two varieties being florida and yuma. You can tell the difference between the two usually by looking at their mouth area. The florida Ricordia have a smooth mouth area, while the yuma Ricordia tend to have 'bubbles' around their mouth like the rest of the coral

I wasnt able to get a picture that turned out much better.



It is too small and a point and shoot camera makes it hard to get a good shot.

What do you think?

Even with those two links, I still can't see the visual difference.

Here is a shot of the mouth of a yuma Ricordia, notice how it has 'bubble' on the sides of its mouth. A florida Ricordia will be smooth in this area, unforunatley I don't have a picure though.

tmerrick: The MC is very nice looking, very tempting. Why don't we wait some time as mine is just starting to turn pink. If you don't mind drop me an e-mail and we'll go from there.
