Default Results of Ricordia too close to Closed Brain

Here's what happens when you allow your Ricordia to get too close to your Closed Brain.

yup, those pesky mushroom type corals are potent. I had blue mushrooms take out the side of my hydnophora, which is something!!

Twice I've had my orange fuzzy shrooms do damage. Once to my scroll and once to my candy coral. They both came back though.

You are both right about the Red Mushroom, but it has nothing to do with what I was showing. The picture intends to show the damage to the Brain. All other items in the picture are incidental.

I still don't know if it was the red mushroom or the Ricordia that did the damage.

The picture generated confusion I see.

After the Ricordia caused the damage, I moved the Brain away from the danger zone, and took the picture.

I will probably take that rock out later, and try to remove that red mushroom.
