Looking to gather info on how many of you are running different bounce shrooms in/on same system.
How many different bounces are you running and how long?
Have you seen issues when introducing new bounce shrooms?
Are you finding success running certain bounce shrooms together and not so great with others?
I've had many failures running multiple bounces together.
Im convinced like certain nems they simply don't play well with eachother and will resort to chemical warfare often. Ive tried separating to different tables. Ive tried certain bounces with certain bounces and have had some success but ultimately I feel one will out compete the other.
Ive been wanting to chalk it up to they are just highly susceptible to bacterial infections. Which I believe may be true.
But have witnessed many times where everything and everyone will be just fine. For months. Some close to a year and half..
Then Ill see a couple or all randomly deflate, skimmers get crazy ,expell zooaxthelle and never fails within a month or 2 end up doing the melt dance for no apparent reason.
I have multiple assortment of shrooms. Never had another species melt on me.
No others are phased during these events.
Either bounce shrooms really are highly susceptible to bacterial infections that other shrooms aren't but I don't feel this is the case.
Maybe @AquaBiomics or anyone for that matter can shed light if any studies have been done on bounce shrooms a susceptibility for bacterial infections?
I feel like some of the other shrooms should have ended up with at least some symptoms or death if its bacterial.
Its wierd if it is chemical warfare it does not bother other species of shrooms.
What are your thoughts and have you experienced same scenarios with bounces?
