what happened to my mushroom ?

[cdckjn]

stressed???

Mine sometimes is like yours. But after a while, they will open up nicely. But it does not stay longer this way.

[Qxnviolet]

When did you put them in? It takes a while before they get used and relax. Shouldnt stay like this for long though...

[chercm]

like how many days ?

[chucky]

[chercm]

thanks a lot

but need to clarify , do u give frozen shrimp to mushroom ?

[Skipper32]

i dn't five them personally...but at times mysis do fall on them...but i think lightings are rather impt for mushies....

[Qxnviolet]

Hrmz, do mushrooms need alot of light? I left mine under a shaded area and its not doing so well...

[wil_lee76]

hey dude,

IMO,do take note of the mouth ....monitor the mushies for few days...make sure their mouth is close...if not, their mouth will get bigger. and started to melt.

keep the mushies in low flow area...maybe next time, when u buy mushies, acc proper with dripping of your tank water. And place them in shaded areas...and with days goes by, slowly move them out.

hope these helps!

thanks

[chercm]

yesterday night they close but today open bigger.

do i have to move the wave maker away from them ?

[Qxnviolet]

Mushrooms do better in low flow areas if im not mistaken...

[chercm]

thanks i have adjusted the wave maker away already

[chercm]

[chercm]

[Qxnviolet]

From the pics...i think the mushroom have already started dying...from the mouth area...any more experience reefers can advice?

[chercm]

[Qxnviolet]
