  • I used t5 lights 4x54w. 2 blue actinic and 2 65k. As far as tips, these mushrooms grew like weeds in my tank. The only supplement I ever added was pickling lime. I also used instant ocean sAlt. I hope this helps.

  • I am not sure what species the mushrooms are. They are actually pink and green color.

  • So cute how it's trying to dig into them. Nice video!

  • Yeah, they look pretty funny when they are trying to do this. Since I took this video, they have started and stopped doing this. It seems to just be an occasional event. I am thinking that natural instincts may be the cause?

  • Yeah, I have an anemone in my tank as well but, it is a BTA. I have heard that clowns will not host btas.

  • Ours do the same... we have the same mushrooms too.. Funny! They rub on them so much that the mushrooms have bumps now!

  • @dvst8z SO what I'm asking is will my Polyps and Mushrooms regenerate or are the GONE? Because right now they look pretty FUCT!

  • @dvst8z I purchased a 55gal with sup pump off of Craiglist over a month ago everything was GREAT. had a nice assortment of Polyps and Mushroom. NOW, after the light which the dude I bought it from had taped and tried to repair BLEW and I started getting shocked after I removed the light and went with a lower intesity Coralife T5. My Polyps and Mushrooms started dying MIND you I had to rearrange the tank. I hope too much handling ... anyhoo I have another T5 10,000k 26 watt acitinic WHATYATHINK?
