When I first got it, it was 1”, currently 1.25” (when flat)

Got an awesome feeding response today, usually it can be quite picky on days it wants to eat lol

I fed it today, got a good feeding response, weird thing happened though, it’s been in this halfway close position for about 2 1/2 hours. (Lights currently off)

What have you been feeding it to get such a good response? And do you turn your flow all the way off? I’ve been having trouble getting some of my smaller mushrooms to eat and grow.

I turn all my flow off for when I spot feed corals around 3 times per week. I mix my tank water in a glass with Rod’s food. I feed the mushroom the small pieces of shrimp along with the watery part in the glass.

Very nice bounce. Hopefully feeding works out for you and it grows fast. None of my mushrooms have ever really liked feeding other than my sun kissed bounce. Anything you may be doing differently?

Mine sometimes can be picky, not even reacting when food is spot fed to it. But I find it has helped when I turn off the flow completely, compared to just turning off powerhead and not the one that came with tank. I feed it medium sized pieces of shrimp from rods food along with the tiny Particles
