Sweet mushroom bro! I have one just like it! I am seriously thinking about cutting it into equal pieces and seeing how they re-grow. Up for an experiment bro?

Very cool shroom. I love the colors.
Glad you are back. Hope all is well with you.

Sweet shroom - I like the blue spots on the red shroom

About 3-4 weeks ago I got this shroom rock from my LFS
10 srooms plus 3 babies that were hidden by the larger ones for 50 bucks.
They are chocolate with blue spots except for 2 and a baby that are brown with blue stripes. My LFS is usually on the expensive side (they are in a pricey nieghborhhood) but I thought this rock was a great deal.

Reefstick · 06-19-2007, 11:44 AM

Awsome!!! I'll take two, and a large fry please.

BigAl07 · 06-19-2007, 12:02 PM

i really like the way your little shroom corner looks there. i cant wait to fill out my shroom collection. i want to add a blue and white striped shroom, and a few ricordias to my shroom garden.
