    I have a rock with about 8 Green Striped Mushroom's and today 2 of them detached themselves from the rock. They curled up and fell to the substrate (or got blown) so I set them on another rock...Why would they do that?

    They most likely felt like they had run out of room on the rock they were on and are looking to go forth and multiply....and multiply they will. We call them tank roaches :D

    Thats funny in my tank, mushies suffer and move under rocks... The only way they grow is in the bottom corners of the tank where the PAR is like 113uMol/m2/sec....
    I have never had them multiply like crazy, glad though....
    GSP on the otherhand...anyone want some?!?!

    Good luck Coldshot

    Oh, the single mushies are VERY easy to frag into quarters, quadrupling your $$ from the LFS!! :D
