The King Kong Yuma Mushroom is a premium Ricordea‑type coral known for its massive polyp structure, bold coloration, and dramatic texture. This mushroom features a thick, fleshy disc covered in oversized bubble‑like nodules, giving it a powerful, sculpted appearance that stands out instantly in any reef.
Coloration ranges from deep oranges and fiery reds to neon greens, purples, and metallic highlights, often shifting depending on lighting intensity. Under actinic spectrum, the King Kong Yuma glows with intense fluorescence, with each nodule catching light differently to create a multi‑layered, almost 3D effect.
This coral is hardy, adaptable, and thrives in low‑to‑moderate flow, making it an excellent choice for both collectors and hobbyists looking to add a statement piece to their soft coral section.
Key Features
Oversized, bubble‑textured Yuma mushroom
Intense multi‑color fluorescence under actinic lighting
Hardy and beginner‑friendly
Excellent for low‑light zones and shaded areas
Capable of rapid growth and splitting under stable conditions
A proper acclimation helps your King Kong Yuma settle quickly and maintain its vibrant coloration and polyp structure.
Float the sealed bag in your tank or sump to match temperature gradually.
Transfer coral and bag water into a small container.
Start a slow drip from your tank (2–4 drips per second).
Allow the water volume to double. This gently adjusts salinity and pH.
Discard bag water and gently place the Yuma in a low‑flow, low‑light area.
Avoid direct, strong flow — Yumas prefer gentle movement.
Keep it shaded for the first few days to prevent light shock.
Over 1–2 weeks, gradually increase light exposure if desired. Yumas can thrive in moderate lighting but should always be introduced slowly.
Maintain stable parameters (especially salinity and alkalinity).
Optional feeding: small particle foods (reef roids, fine mysis) once settled. This can enhance growth and deepen coloration.
