In the above overall shot there is a large shroom, i'm not sure of its proper name but it sits at the bottom in the middle and spans 6-7 inches across. Its sitting just bellow right of the copperband and is a grey/blue colour. (tank size is 5ft for perspective)
When its fully extended its a fantastic sight! Over the last week it has wilted somewhat, it does this fairly regularly then re-expands... but its been wilting for nearly a week so much so that the top half is literally flopped over the bottom half so the back is expossed, and some of the fish - clowns especially are having a peck at the back/fleshy bit.
I have another mushroom over on the right which is exactly the same as it originally came from the same rock, this extends to about 2-3 inches and is doing fine and growing. All the other shrooms are ok..
Is it just a case of it is dying through natural causes? I mean, they just can't grow forever can they?
Any opinions?
A dying mushroom is usually a shrunken small shriveled version of that big beauty. Looks like you might be a mushroom parent now
