Fast Facts

All Marine Center Corals are hand picked

One of the easiest "corals", mushrooms will thrive in most aquariums. Placing pieces lower in the aquarium for indirect lighting and low water movement promote the best expansion, but they will but will adapt to a wide variety of conditions. Feeding is not necessary but may enhance growth. Individuals that are only tiny polyps when collected can grow to impressive mushrooms in only a few months.

A variety of species are sold in the trade as Green Mushroom, but all are similar looking and require the same care. Green mushrooms are collected on small pieces of randomly shaped rocks ranging from around 2"-4". Larger pieces in these colors of mushrooms are occasionally available, but not s plentiful as medium and small sized pieces. Green mushrooms are usually the best buy in mushrooms since they typically have better coverage/more quantity of polyps than other colors. Grow rapidly in most aquariums.

Shown is an extra large piece of Rhodactis sp. Green Mushroom, one of several types sold as "Green Mushroom". This variety is often called "Green Frilly".
