Mushroom? ID please

Quartapound · 10/16/2011, 06:27 AM

I'm starting to try and document a list of all the creatures in my tank (before the list gets too long, I need to write them down as I find them!)

This mushroom (I think it's a mushroom) came in on established liverock from another tank.

can someone ID what kind it is?

Thanks in advance!

Yes it appears to be a mushroom of some type.

Since it hitch hiked in on the rock it's probably a bit stressed. It could take up to a few weeks in your tank and under your lighting before you'll really know what it looks like.
