I have a green ricordea that has shrunk from like a size of a quarter to dime size or smaller. I have had it for probably 3 months or so, I see there is people feeding theirs. Do they need feed on a weekly basis unlike regular mushrooms that are photosynthetic?? Any advise would be great, thanks alot.
 
Ricordea are photosynthetic so you don't HAVE to feed them. Have you checked your water lately. What are your nitrates. Also ricordea can be very picky about the amount of light they are getting. They usually require more light than other mushrooms. Try moving it around until it starts to do better.
