if you cannot tell from the first pic of this one I can find a better one.

They are both yumas. Not sure of prices. I think I paid 40 or 50 for 2 and one baby of the orange ones? I think the greens are cheaper.

WOOO, this guy im talking to is selling me this tank and it has 20+ orange ones and 11 green ones and probably 200+ purple mushrooms.. for $400 plus the tank and equipment. I was just making sure it was a fair deal before I grabbed it

Just a note, Yumas are Ricordeas. Ricordea is a genus of mushrooms. It's Ricordea yuma and Ricordea florida. Ricordea florida is what we typically call a Ricordea.

He sent me other pics, this is a pic 3 years ago, but the ones showing the mouth straight on look like the bumps go all the way up.. either way, what would either one be worth? orr the same?

Personally based on color I still think the first one is a Yuma. Jeff's right both rics but so commonly referred to as a Yuma and a ricordia (Florida). I haven't bought any rics in awhile but I think 10 a head?

[specvjeff]

Rics vary in pricing based on color. The green and blues go for $10 a head. Pink, Orange, $20. Multi colors $25. The really nice ones like yellow teal, peach can go for $30 a polyp.

Yumas are all based on color. You can get more basic ones for $15-$20 and some of the crazy ones go for $50-$75 a polyp.
