Hi guys!
Have ordered a ricordea florida ultra green and orange/rainbow.
I do not have lot of experience with ricordea and all my mushrooms have always done well.
Anyway, The corals were shipped and delivered on the same day. However when opening the cup the ricordea’s looked white. Wasn’t too alarmed because it is the first time I buy those “fancy coloured” ricordea. But I have the idea they should not look like this and are kind of bleached. I would think this is related to lighting issue. Is it possible for them to bleach in 12 hours? (I suppose they were okay when made ready for shipment).
Any ideas if I would be able to keep them alive and have them back to their original color? They have been in a low flow/ low light area for 5 days but so far no real improvement noticed.
EDIT: I have multiple other ricordeas (yuma) in the tank which are doing very well and show amazing colours.
