New mushroom owner w/ some questions.

[Kissfan79]

Hey guys...
I just recently bought my first mushrooms (red and green) and have a couple of questions. First off...is it normal for them to look "puffy" like in this photo (also...the green mushroom looks kinda' brown the bigger it poofs up)? Normally when the lights are off they are a lot smaller but get huge when the the lights have been on for a while. Also...how much flow do mushrooms like? If I adjust my flow direction somewhat....the mushrooms start to flutter around the edges.....do they like this or not like this. Last question....how often should I target feed w/ phytoplankton?

Thanks, Jim

Low flow...no edges flying especially if they are coming off the rock. I personally dont feed mine. About the color change im not sure.
