Hair Mushroom Ate an Algae pallet = bad?

[travis32]

Well, last night I threw in an algae pallet to see if my blenny would nibble on it. Well, it landed on my rock covered with about 1 to 2 dozen hair mushrooms (hard to tell with them all fully open).

Within 10 seconds or so the hair mushroom opened a white center reached for the algae pallet and then closed up. The lights went off shortly thereafter and Haven't checked on him with the lights on.

Is it o.k. for hair mushrooms to swallow a whole algae pallet? LOL.

Well, for one, I didn't know Hair mushrooms ate food.. LOL.. They've been very healthy without food since day 1.

Most likely it will spit the pellet out undigested. I had shrooms that did the same thing, they can regulate themselves just fine. No worries.
