WWC OG Bounce Mushroom
Transform Your Tank with the Coral That Started a Collector Craze
Looking for the one coral that every serious reefer recognizes on sight? The WWC OG Bounce Mushroom is the original — a World Wide Corals lineage specimen that put Bounce Mushrooms on the map and turned them into one of the most coveted corals in the saltwater aquarium hobby. The signature inflated bubble vesicles are unlike anything else in the reef world, and The Coral Boutique carries genuine OG specimens that deliver the full expression this lineage is known for.
Bounce Mushrooms punch well above their care-level weight — they're forgiving keepers that ask for low light, low flow, and stable parameters, and reward you with a specimen that grows, splits, and appreciates in value over time. The OG lineage in particular develops dense, well-formed vesicles that only become more dramatic as the coral settles and matures in your system.
