joshgabel Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 (edited) here he is i got him two weeks ago from a LFS. all my tank params are correct however i have not tested Calcium. this is supposed to be a green striped shroom. any suggestions? I have tried changing flow rate and lighting intensity for 3 days at a time in each position. i finally glued him to this rock and chips fall where they may.

mFrame Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 My mushrooms hate glue, you're generally better putting them in some container with rubble and letting them attach. After that, ignore them, it should bounce back if you just let it be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
