    ya it isnt rhodactis for sure, i have i have some green hairy mushrooms and not even close. i guess it has to be asked. rhodactis or ricordia? i would give up on the hobby if it wasnt ricordia. as i understood it was ricordia was a mushroom with bulbess tectacles.

    I thought ricordea had smaller and more individual bubbles on the actual mushroom, and the ones I have seen have been really bright in color, oranges and blues, purples and red.
    Somewhere on this website there is actually like an ad for a store that sells ricordea, its called the color morph or something( sorry if i botched it havent seen the ad in a couple days)

    It looks like Hairy Mushrooms to me, which sells for $5-$6 each. So you got what you paid for. Sorry for bursting your bubble buddy. Luna
