I don't think I can link to Reef Builder's blog directly, but if you enter the search term "reef builders yuma ricordea" in google, you'll get a time-lapse video of someone spot-feeding a ricordea with Fauna Marin coral food.

When I had ricordea, I would occasionally spot-feed them with mysis shrimp. Whether or not that actually made them grow faster, I don't know.

The best ricordias are the rare color morphs and there are colectors of these. Ive seen them go for hundreds. Your average maybe will not but they are all beautiful in there own way
