can someone please ID these little mushrooms, they are pure white with green tips and a purple mouth
These mushrooms are bleached. they should be either a brown or green in colour..
they have very little light at the moment , and i feed corals everydayyip they have dispelled the zoozanthallae, i would move them to a subdues lighting spot and feed them
That's what happened to mines when it went under a rock for a few weeks.How do you guys decide that they are bleached right off the bat like that?????
very simple, in 20yrs if reefing i dont know if any white/translucent soft corals, especially in the Rhodactis sp., Discoma's sp. and Ricordea sp. genusesHow do you guys decide that they are bleached right off the bat like that?????
yep i have a pure white birdsnest, which lost its algae but is one its way back so it is possible, it has been white for about 6 weeks now, so lets see if the shrooms color up, but if the baby ones are white like robert said then it means they are white by nature?
Eish, I always thought that when corals get bleached they have too much light?
So in this case you should put them closer to the light...?
Sorry Robert for highjacking the thread

That can happen, bleaching, or rather expelling zooxanthellae (I love that word, lol) is generally related to a stress event, so things like light shock, suddenly being exposed to high intensity light after being in very dim light can trigger bleaching, just like being in low light for an extended period of time can also cause bleaching.I always thought that when corals get bleached they have too much light?
