I have had these mushrooms for years.This is the first time they have shrunk up for more than a couple days. They have been closed and shrunken for about two weeks. The water in my 120 gal has no water problem I have tested for. Any ideas out there? thanks

Have you tested the PH, ALK, hows your other levels?

Are all the shrooms in the same spot, meaning something nearby could be disturbing them? or are they all over the tank. Do you have other color mushrooms and how are they doing? What new additions have you made to the tank. As burbarry says, check your levels...wrong temp and salinity can have effects too..

interesting. I have a blue/green mushroom that kind of shrunk up the other day and has been shrunken since. parameters havent changed in 4 months, no new adds to the tank.

The mushroom popped out two new mushrooms about 3 weeks before he decided to shrink up. Not sure if that is related? Used all it's energy to reproduce, end of life cycle, etc?
