I have a few different shrooms but it seems like any discosoma types rarely lay flat and stretch out for me. I have tried high/med/low flow and lighting conditions and they don’t seem to change. My rhodactis mushrooms on the other hand have no issue stretching and get huge. I’ve seen many pics of discosomas like that too so I am wondering if I have some sort of issue going on here.

how long have you had them. What's the flow and how much light are they getting

I’ve had the jawbreaker and green shrooms for almost 2 years. The eclectus is pretty new.

I have 2 wavemakers that are pulsing. I’ve had these high to and little to lots of flow. I did not move them thinking there would be a sudden change. I’ve tried these different locations for months at a time. I run a Radion with AB+ schedule.

I’m stumped.

The like lower light and lower flow. So maybe a combo of light and flow.
