clown eaten?

[genzod66]

my small clown has disappeared,checked everywhere,overflows ,rocks,fed the tank twice,he always eats,then i noticed,i bought a large 4inch umbrella mushroom,it was small when i got it,i noticed it was turned inside out ,like in a ball,as if something was inside,its big enough,well i dont know how long he could have been in there,i pried open the mouth of shroom and there was like this white stringy stuff,but no clown,im thinking that stuff was the clown,i have a book on corals,it shows a mushroom eating a bangaii cardinal,the pic looked just like my situation,could this be?anyone ever have this happen?any ideas,its a single polyp shroom ,bought on internet?? does this sound possible??

Never saw on happened, but doesnt mean it cant. Some mushroom can eat fish/inverts if they're around that size. And youll at least see bones and some remain of your clownfish.

The white stringy stuff is most likely "mesenchymal filaments" (the mushrooms "intestines"). Clown may have been eaten but my bet is that your clown simply died. Can you post a pic?
