Bought 3 iron man mushrooms from queen city, the moment i opened the bags they looked detached, i turned down the flow, today. Same exact thing they are not stretchinf, if i increase the flow they get blown over, they are hanging by a hair..

I keep my shrooms in very low flow and low light. How long have these been in your tank?

mushrooms usually placed at the bottom of the tank, to get lower light and flow. You have yours higher up the rock structure where it is higher light and flow........

The one looks like it is about to let go from the plug. If it does put some rock rubble in a plastic container and set it in a low flow area on the sand. Put the loose mushroom in it. It will attach to a piece of rock rubble in about a week. You can then glue the rock it is on to where ever you want to put it.
