The owner of the local fish store tore down his personal tank in the store
a few days ago to sell it.
He kept all of the live rock out of it tho, well , I have been begging him for some of the purple shrooms he had in it but he wouldnt sell them.
Yesterday he said, if you want them and the rocks they are on it will cost ya, and yea, it sure did, but I bought both of them anyway.
I love the purple color of them and they get huge when open, some as large as 5 inches across when open.
Here are some pics of them.

This one opens to around 5 inches. But isnt yet.

Also bought 5 dominoe's for my 45 tank, but guess what, all I can see is white spots moving around in the tank since the back is painted black, so much for pretty fish, lol

I have 6 sugar gliders,4mini horses ,4 SW tanks and two great dogs and two cats
that are identical brothers.
40 acres of woods and ponds in East Texas.
I love to garden to.

Hi Ben, thanks, I love them allot.
Mike, I am hoping so, I can have a tank full of them and never get tired of seeing them.
I have seen them take over tanks, but I think I can sell a few;)

Don't be surprised if they change color, my Rics in Florida always did during any changes

Nice mushies.

I love mushrooms, I'm planning on covering the bottom of my new tank with mushrooms. That is, as long as my pistol shrimp doesn't move anymore corals. He likes to move my small Zoo's around the tank at the moment.
