Yeah that particular kind of hairy shroom can get quite large! I have one thats looking like its going on 6-8 inches so far and it was half that when i got it a few months ago.


Beautiful when they get that large :)

Sweet thanks are they suppose to get that big? Hes the size of a frisbee.

They do get large, but be glad that you don't have an Amplexidiscus sp. (Elephant Ear Mushroom). These get about double the size, and can eat fish and invertebrates.
 
Looks kind of like mine

Its a hairy green mushroom , every other day I like to feed mine a few marine pellets which it seems to really like.
