neon mushroom anyone have one like this??

[hoopersmom]

I reciently bought this mushroom from a fellow reefer who was braking down their tank. I have never seen one like it and have done all kinds of searches to see if there are more like it out there. It is a neon pinkish/orange. When he took it out of the tank and put it in the bag it is still very brightly colored. I can't seem to get a picture to show how bright it really is but here is what I have, there is one larger mushroom and 2 smaller ones.

its a normal orange mushroom, looks a bit bleached, thats what makes it glow.

I really don't think it's bleached the picture just makes it look like there is white on it but there is not and it is a ton brighter in person. The person who had it before had it for months and it has always been this color and the babies grow this color. I know a couple of people who also have tanks and they also don't think it's bleached. I am sorry I can't get a better picture.

just bought one just like it, Its not bleached but does have a bit of translusense alot like a bubbletip anemone. Under halides mine is like a bright orange hunting vest. Its the first thing that catches you eye in my tank. I've been contemplating using mine in an experiment I've hear about to make a bicolor mushroom. Cut one neon orange and one true blue mushroom in half and sew the different colored halves together thus making a half and half mushroom. I've seen it done with green striped and blue striped mushrooms. These neon orange ones are my definut favorites though
