Hey guys,

I had my new lavender mushroom in my tank yesterday and it was looking fine. I come in today and noticed them being shriveled up and their mouths are sticking out. Is this common with them from sitting there overnight?

I fed them a blend of mysis shrimp, algea and flake food ( super broken down to a pulp ). Should I just get myself some phytoplankton/zooplankton or is this enough?

This is the mushroom:

I had those shrooms for a number of years and I have never fed them. They seem to shrivel up or get smaller when the lights go down. I would'nt be too worried about it. I think they are too hardy as I'm trying to nuke them out of my tank. Not so easy to do.

i have these same hairy mushies and they shrivel occasionally like any other mushie i have. they should be fine. i have even had a few go white only to come back strong with no effort on my part. also i have never spot fed them.

I just got my first bottle of rotos, but i have been using cyclopeze and daphnia, and they seemed to do the job.

Mushrooms are ok. They opened up about 15 minutes later after the lights were on.

Good to here. I was told that they are green hairy mushrooms. Same thing?

Not sure, I'm horrible at ID'ing things at this point.
