Bright Neon Yuma Mushroom
Transform Your Tank with a Yuma That Glows Like It's Plugged In
Looking for a soft coral that reads as neon from across the room? The Bright Neon Yuma Mushroom is a Ricordea yuma selected specifically for its electric, high-intensity coloration — the kind of vivid, saturated tone that doesn't just show up under reef lighting, it dominates it. Neon Yumas are not your average mushroom coral. The combination of the species' signature bubble-textured surface and truly electric coloration creates a specimen that looks almost artificially lit even in natural reef conditions. In a tank full of interesting corals, this is the one people point to first.
All the ease of a standard Yuma applies here — low light, low flow, and stable parameters are all it needs. The neon coloration is inherent to the specimen, not a product of extreme lighting or special conditions, which means it holds across a wide range of setups. Plant it low, give it room, and let it do what Yumas do best — split, spread, and get more impressive over time.
