Normal for Rhodactis

bashment · 07/10/2018, 11:57 AM

The tips of my rhodactis began bubbling out a good amount over the past few months. Was wondering if this was normal or does this have bounce in its future?

I have this same Rhodactis. Mine is doing the same thing. Crank your blue lights and pray for a miracle! They say that blue leds will make them bounce. And it doesn’t just happen to rhodis. I have a favia doing the same thing with one huge bubble and also my blastos have bounce tendencies!

No need for snarky responses. Just asking a legitimate question if this was normal or not for a rhodactis.

Yep, normal enough. Not all of them will begin to get the inflated vessicles but, as mcgyvr said, once they do this and the progeny show the same tendencies then you could give it the illustrious "bounce" title. It has become generally accepted that the reason for the inflation of the vessicles is how intense our artificial lighting has become and a great many number of mushrooms and even other corals, like oshanickreef said in regards to his favia and blastos. Hope this was helpful and at any rate those are some very pretty rhodactis mushrooms you've got there.
