Hi,

my green mushrooms is turning white and slowly disappearing one by one. can someone please help.

I noted one seems to be rip off from the base..... any suggestion what seem to be the course? i saw a star worm over a dead mushroom...

fish and buttons are doing well.......... water parameter check and found to be within limits........

please advise.

I have a similar occurence... one of my green mushrooms has one of its side bleaching... at first I thot it was dying or something... then I notice the bleached part broke away from the main shroom... I hope my eyes were not playing tricks on me... :blink::blink::blink: because over the next few days the bleached part turned light green and slowly greener over the days.... as if it becomes another shroom itself...

Is that how they multiply? or just my eyes playing a trick on me?
