Just picked these up at the LFS, great looking mushrooms. I was debating with the employee that it was XXX mushroom, but he was like no it isn't. I want to see what you guys/gals think about it.

I have more photos or can take more if needed. My macro sucks on my camera, but I'm looking into a better one.

None of the pictures are enhanced, just cropped and sized.
 
Looks like yuma to me: note the little nodules on the mouth.. and I really like the pastel colors!
 
yup, gotta be a ricordia yuma....Great find! Is there more than one of those, cause it looks like it?
Awsome photos! How do you get your camera to work with you?
 
Exactly what I thought when I first saw it! I was so excited, I've been waiting to get some Yumas for a long time, but the price that everyone wants $$$ that was a dream. lol

There is approximately 6 distinctive mushrooms on the rock. 2 or 3 slowly forming to be individuals and the biggest one is moving around (looks like its leaving a babie behind :D). Presto2345 if you are interested in 1 of them I will give you one for a nice deal in a few weeks. I just want them to adjust to the tank before I start fragging them because I hate the rock they are on.

As for my camera, I am using a Sony DSC-P10. Its a few years old but works fine for me. All of the settings are on default... point and shoot for me. Just set the camera on macro and no flash. Take the picture from as you want, try not to use the zoom at all. Look at the screen until you see it focus and take the shot. After I upload them on my laptop, I use photoshop to resize and enlarge that one area of the photo I like or want to focus on. I take about 10-20 pictures of the same thing because half of them come out blurry. lol

More pictures to come once they feel more "comfortable".
 
definitely interested ek9vboi! Maybe even a trade for one of my four rare colors when they become available. Either way let me know.

When your ready. The Yumas are opened nicely, just need to find a better place so they can really open up. They are currently in low flow.
 
Thanks guys! I just started to frag or rather remove some of the Yumas off the main rock, the rubble they were on just popped off from the expoxy (sp). Looking forward to seeing them spead! :D
