I have had this mushroom for about 2 months, and a couple of days ago I noticed it was not opening as fully as it used to. When I woke up this morning, the shroom had some small bubbles on it.

Anyone seen something like this?

My water prams are all good, the only thing that has changed is the position of the Power head.

Could this cause it?

Thanks.

Just looks like the bottom of it's "foot" to me. They will bubble up like that when they aren't attached. he is probably getting ready to look for new real estate.

Oh ok, sounds good, do they just detach and free float like nem's or do they crawl on the rocks?

Usually when they float its because something has changed in your tank pretty quickly. Crawling usually happens when they are trying to find that sweet spot or are making room for babies.

I've also had mine do that before spitting out a baby mushroom.
