King Kong Mushroom
King Kong Mushroom
King Kong Mushroom is a standout with the purple flesh, with flecks of bright oranges throughout, specially on the swollen vesicles. It's a member of the Ricordea yuma family.
King Kong's like all mushroom corals has the ability to walk, so should it not like where it's been placed. It has the ability to change it's placement for itself.It will often leave a baby in it's place, should it decide to move, so they replicate fast and easily in the right conditions.
Like most corals in general, they likes stability in their environments, so will benefit from the stable levels of Alkalinity, Calcium and Magnesium along with various other trace elements found within the oceans. However mushrooms are able to handle a wide variety of light conditions and water parameters, which makes them great for beginners
Mushrooms do not require a direct feeding from coral foods, however they will happily accept most foods if offered.
