Heeelllpppp

can any one tell me if this is normal? Her are some dated pictures.

 

Mushroom looks like it is toast. Hard to say exactly what happened.

 

zoas look fine

 

omg, is there anything I can do to save it ?

 

You might be able to frag it, but I doubt it.

I have the same ones in my tank, and have had the smallest piece grow into a whole new one. Hopefully, it will work for you.

 

The bridal netting might be irritating it. Usually when they expel their mesenterial filaments, there's a coral nearby they are fighting with. I don't see any nearby corals. I would take off the netting and see what happens.

 

I just did , not good , he's gone. But for future referrence what would you suggest to hold it down in place till it takes to a rock ? :-[ Can you purchase them already attatched to a rock?

 

The bridal veil method usually works well.

Another method is to use a small piece of PVC tubing or a glass. Fill that up with CC rubble. Put the mushroom on the rubble. Then rubberband the bridal vail to the top of the tube. Wait a week. The mushroom should have attached to the rubble. Now you can just use superglue gel to glue the rubble to your rock.

 

Yes, you can purchase them already on a rock. Most times LFS will simplt call it "Mushroom Rock". I know you wanted to keep it where you had it but it will eventually find a place and settle there and attach to something. If down the road you see it attached to the substrate (in a calm spot in the tank) or a small rock, you could move it to where you want. Leave it alone for 3-4 weeks for now.
