So let me paint you a picture here....I picked up a nice green hairy mushroom last night, The employees at this store were.....not very knowlegable? Anyway, They bagged it up and it was growing off a old hermit shell and then started to grab onto a clam shell, was just a shell no living clam, and from how the mushroom looks now it almost appears they tried to tear it off the clam shell. I looked in the tank this morning as i got it added to the tank last night right at lights out and part of the mushroom is still attached to the clam shell and another part, the main part, is still attached to the hermit shell, But you can clearly see it is tearing. Now my question will it still survive if it does tear off completely, and would it be better if i just took a razor blade and cut where it is all tearing. Will try to get a picture later today or early tomorrow morning.
