I have an extra large cup mushroom that has shrunk to the size of a dime. Any suggestions as to how to bring it back? It is not dead yet? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

And how long did it take? Was it months or minutes?

My husband has the parameters, I'll have to ask. The mushroom has been dime size for about 4 months. This happened gradually. Prior to that, it was extra large and healthy.

I almost forgot. It's in a 72 gallon with two 150 watt 20,000k HQI and two 96 watt 50/50. I keep it in the lower half of the tank in mild current.

It's not needing VitC, it's needing to be fed. Do you ever target feed it? Still the water for 20 minutes, squeeze food from a turkey baster directly over it? I had a carpet anemone move behind some rock where I could not reach it and it went from dinner plate to 50 cent piece over a few months. Finally crawled back out about 2 months ago. Now that I can feed it again it has begun to grow.
