Do you like Ricordia Florida's or Yuma's better

[stereomandan]

Just curious. Personally, I think Ric. Floridas are nicer looking because they look more uniform to me for some reason. Yuma's look a little ragged sometimes. The Yuma's can have some crazy colors though. I also like the smooth mouth of the Ric floridias better too.

Just a fun poll to get your opinions.

BTW, which kind typically sells for more?

I like Yuma better because of the colors.
And typically, Yuma are more expensive.
I have an bright orange Yuma with really large lobes on the face of the coral and it was going for $150/polyp back when I got it...

Yeah, I was on here a few years back when ricordia's started to be the latest fad. I was surprised that Yumas started selling for more than floridas. Looks like the prices are still a little crazy in my opinion. I do love ricordia's though, both types.

Kind of the same way with some of the high prices people will pay for Zoanthids.

I like Yumas more for their look and color. I hate them for their riskiness and cost. Ricordias are much more hardy.

Ricordea yuma is my preferred one because of its beautiful colors and larger size -hard to beat that- but I also like Ricordea florida for its handiness and nice colors, as well.

Hmm... about 2 to 1 for the Yumas at this point. You are all brainwashed!!!

I need to get myself a Yuma as see what the fuss is all about. After looking at pictures of Yumas for the last few years, I still like the Ric Floridas better, but the Yuma's do have some crazy colors.

I guess it’s simply a matter of choice, stereomandan. The one YOU like is the best for you.
