I am getting ready to frag some of mushrooms that  have and I was wondering how everyone decides their prices when selling these.  The prices listed on liveaquaria.com seem a bit high to me.  This is not currently a list for these items for sale, since I still need to  decide how many of each I will be harvesting.  Thanks in advance for your help

I dont currently have pictures of mushrooms in my tank however, however here are some pics of the types I haver from liveaquaria.com

the third ones are just hairy mushrooms... i dunno its up to you. depending on how large they are.. anywhere from 2-5 a polyp. if they are an extremely large one i charge more.

I'd say 5-10 on common hairy mushrooms, up to 20 on some of the rarer stuff, couple bucks on common discosoma, the green stripe watermelon pictured often goes for more, and if you have any crazy colored ones or "superman" etc ones they go for much higher.  Pet store prices are always really really high on mushrooms.  But we started out paying those high prices, so ask what you feel they are worth.

I would be very interested in some of the muhrooms.  I think they are real cool looking.  Especially the one in pic 3
Vipers look cool at a distant, but be careful of the bite..its a killer!



Still to many cool stuff not enough money

I was going to take some pics of the mushrooms in my tank today, but of course my battery was dead.  I will try to have some pics up tomorrow or the next day so that I can make sure they are properly identified before I start selling them
