What is this white lookin stringy stuff on my hairy mushrooms..is it some kinda parasite..Is that why maybe they havent opened up in a long time.
Or is it the mushroom falling apart..they have looked this same way for like 2weeks

tank is fine

ph 8.1
ammonia 0
trite 0
trate 5

1.025 SG

Everything else in my tank is perfect, Sun Coral, frogspawn, toadstool, the regular mushrooms with the blue dots are fine. Candycane is great...its just these hairy mushrooms took a dump for some odd reason.

I have Orbit 260w light on them as well...
Temp 79
 
Thats it spilling its guts out.

Try moving them to a slightly shaded area? If all parameters are wehre they should be, nothing wacky is getting into th tank, everything else is normal... light is one of the few things i can think of =\
 
Over the past week i have tried them all over the tank...Low, high
High flow, low flow..Nothing..they seem to not change. I just dont get why they are the only things doing bad. The lights are breand new. Just got the light under a month ago. All I have in the tank is a Long nose butterfly, pair of clowns and a Lawnmower blenny and a cleaner shrimp.
 
I notice when i dose additives (after testing and dosing when needed) like a 2 part solution that my shrooms sometimes spill like that in reaction to me adding alkalinity ...

If possibly i'd recommend getting a check for it - it kind of goes hand in hand with pH but you never know
