I have a large Toadstool mustroom i purchased localy about a month ago.
it was under a 150 halide but underneathe a frag rack so it wasn't in direct light.
i have 10k CF's right now and have had the mushroom up near the top of the tank scince i bought it.
The problem is,.. it will fully open up and have full polyp extention for about 2-3 days then it will completely close up and encase its self in a gel like slime,..then another 2-3 days will pass and it'll open back up for a few days.
this cycle has repeated itself scince i've bought it.
does it simply need more light ?
all water param's check out good.
sal 1.024
trite: 0
trate: .5
amon: 0
cal. 420
ph 8.2
i can get pics if need be.
