Blue Mushroom problems, ADVICE?

[reefgeeker]

I recently purchased a "True Blue Mushroom" from the saltwater store. It has a 2" diameter and looked very beautiful in the show tank. I got it home and its kinda scrunched up and not sprawling out like it was in the store tank?? I placed it on the bottom of the tank on a flat piece of live rock in a low flow area with plenty of light and room to sprawl. It just isnt looking to comfy yet? ANY SUGGESTIONS??????

Where do they prefer to be placed?

How do they stick?

How long until they become comfortable?

They seem to like lower light so it seems you put it in a good place. Did you acclimate it carefully?

I find after being fussed with mushes usually take up to a few days to get over it and open back up.. Give your guy a little time before you get too worried.. they're pretty dang hardy

I agree. Give it some time and it should come out. Needs time to fully acclimate to your tank. Lower light and flow will help.

What lights were they under in the store? That might help you know were to place them in your tank. Just a thought.
