Each will be small, but will grow under VHO or MH lights.

Each is free to a member of the club providing that.....

They are at the next meeting to receive a colony

I got these mushrooms back in January 2004 as 3 GIANT
mushrooms. Shortly after, they began to split. All three
of them have split. One into about 6 different frags. I have
them towards the top of my tank directly under the output
flow from my HOB skimmer. They seem to like some flow
but not a whole lot. They are at the top of my tank so
when I turn on the MH (250W) they get a full dose. They
don't seem to mind the MH but do well under just the
VHO as well. These mushroom get LARGE.

The recipients promise that once they are twice the size
they are now, they will donate a frag the approximate
size of the original donor frag.

If you wish to be a sponsor....reply to this list. The first 3
(maybe 4) will get a frag. The next people on the list
will receive frags from the sponsors when the frag
has doubled.

Here is a pic of one of the frags:

Would PCs work for this mushroom?

PCs would be fine for mushrooms. They do not require intense lighting. Some seem to like it but they should do fine under pcs. Ive even had some shrivel up under pcs because they were too bright.

I have those under VHO and MH. They are easily 10 inches across, but llook smaller since they are so folded. They look great over a bunch of small rock fragments.

Glad to see the mushrooms are doing good for you Tom.
As for the care on these, i had them in my tank for 14 years.

They like a soft to medium (downward) flow. They like lots of light but i have had them do good under nothing more than a floresent daylight bulb. If you manage to kill one of these you should take up knitting or something lol. Almost impossible to kill, but they only seem to really grow well and split when placed high in the tank and under a gental downward flow. If you have an over the back filter and place them directly under the water flow, they will get as big as a soccer ball. They are also pretty much harmless to anything they touch, and clown fish will choose them over an anemone. My favorite coral that i have ever kept, and the first coral i purchased, both 14 years ago when i started reefing and when i got here to florida :)

Jimmy....you sure managed to get that picture posting down!

The frag looks good. In my tank they grew fast and are now approx 8-10 inches, but look smaller since they spread over the rocks. Spot feed it a little food now and again.

For those that are successfully keeping these guys, I have some that need someone to be willing to be a hospital tank for me. Here's the background on these. The mushrooms were dying in a LFS when I first sat my tank up. I told the owner that I would buy it for live rock price since my tank was cycling and if they die it wouldn't hurt anything. I got the $60 rock for $10. When it was transported home it got turned upside down and squished all of the mushrooms. They stayed alive and started to recover nicely but then they suddenly started nuking one by one, BUT they left living tissue behind. This was a little over a month ago. The tissue is still alive and growing slightly, but I want the best for these guys and would like to see them grow. Im still moving around and upgrading lights and tank and Im worried that I might stress them too much and kill them. I have about 4 pieces of tissue left that I can find but Im sure there are more traces left. I would like to nurse these back to a good size and be able to be a donor as well. They look just like the picture above. Would anyone be willing to rehabilitate them?

I have a green frilly mushroom, i don't remember where I got it from, or if it even came from the donor program, but if it's the same as these, I'm okay with being on the have list for them. Just got the one, but should be ready to frag soon.
