UC Grape Ape Yuma Mushroom

UC Grape Ape Yuma Mushroom

Add a burst of vibrant color to your reef tank with the UC Grape Ape Yuma Mushroom. This stunning Ricordea yuma coral is known for its intense, deep purple base contrasted by neon green tentacles, creating a "grape" aesthetic that makes it a true centerpiece in any saltwater aquarium.

Yuma mushrooms are highly sought after by both beginner and expert hobbyists for their unique texture, bubble-like appearance, and relatively hardy nature.

Key Features:

• Vibrant Coloration: Features a deep purple body with striking, high-contrast neon green highlights.

• Unique Texture: Exhibits the classic, bubbly, and intricate surface structure that makes Ricordea yuma so desirable.

• Placement Versatility: Prefers low to moderate water flow and moderate lighting, making it an excellent choice for mid-level tank placement.

• Easy to Maintain: A great candidate for those looking to add exotic, high-end color without the rigorous care requirements of some SPS corals.

Care Guide:

• Lighting: Moderate intensity. Avoid direct, harsh light to prevent bleaching.

• Flow: Low to moderate. Too much flow can cause the mushroom to detach or fail to expand fully.

• Diet: Primarily photosynthetic, but will benefit from occasional spot-feeding with fine, meaty marine foods (like mysis or brine shrimp).

• Placement: Best kept on rockwork. Ensure it has enough space to expand without being stung by neighbors.
