I picked up a sweet rock that actually broke of into two pieces of this mushroom. Can any one tell me what the name\color morph it is?

I also have this bright yellow thingy growing along with my red mushrooms. I paid it no mind when it was fairly small, but today I noticed that it has gotten considerably larger. Any idea of what it can be? It does not move or bother the mushroom in any way.

Bulls eye shrooms or rhodactis, a yellow sponge...my guess.

Thanls.

What is the common color name morph of this Yuma?

I have not seen these before and I have gotten quite few on a rock, well now two ricks, and I want to prop them.

Hard to tell from the pic, but they might just be bleached and color up over time. At leasts that's what the ones I've gotten that look like that have done. :P

The first picture is of Ricordea yuma. Besides the common name of Yuma, there really isn't any common name for color morphs of Corallimorphians (thank goodness). The second picture is just a harmless sponge. This particular one is a pretty common hitchhiker.
