    They'll spread fairly quickly under acceptable conditions.

    Most mushrooms are known as "disk nems" however,I was recently informed that wiki has them now listed as a coral.

    Under proper taxonomy they are Corallimorpharia.

    They are anemones. But we call them corals. Zoanthids share the same identity crisis when it comes to being anemones/corals...



    Any how... The Op is rocking a very nice looking Florida Ricordia!
