I purchased some Blue Mushrooms about 2 weeks ago that were doing fine but recently started to look like they were dying. They have curled up and are no longer open. Are they going through a cycle or is this the beginning of their death? My water is good have checked all PH, nitrate, nitrite and amonia. Let me know if this could be a lighting problem. They are located in the middle of my tank and it is a 35 Gallon hex. Thanks!

is this a pic of your shrooms?
those dont look that bad from the pic. atleast i wouldnt say they are dieing. they look a little stressed however. i would try to move them to a spot with maybe a little less flow, maybe a little less light. then give it a day, if they dont look better, then try a new spot. maybe with more light. before mushrooms die, most will detach from the rock to try and find a better spot. so if you see them dropping off the rock then get worried.
to post a pic, the easiest way is to click reply, then under the vB code section on the next page, you will see a box that says IMG. click that box, enter the URL (if you have the pic in your gallery the URL is typed out at the bottom), click ok, and your done. that button puts the [img ] [/ img] tags in there for you.

i've got a rock that looks almost identicle to that. it goes back and forth between looking like that (especially when the lights have been off) and then them being huge and covering the rock and surrounding area... they just do that, don't worry about it...
