Is this normal for anthias or does it mean that she is becoming a male?

Good night my peeps!

This is a bad picture.

I have all these mushrooms falling off and down.
Do I move them somewhere or just let them move by themselves?

I usually let them move where they want. IME it takes a long time for mushrooms to attach to something and usually flow blows them around unless they're in a low flow area. Unless there is some tactic to getting them to attach fast that I don't know about.

Thanks Walker will do!
I pretty much just let everything do what it wants.
Thanks my friend.

What kind of shrooms? My approach is usually shroom dependent:
Discosoma - remove travelers/floaters asap
Rhodactis - let them do their thing, but keep watch
Bounces/yumas/rics - cheer them on

Thanks JoJo.
I have no idea someone gave them to me.
I got 2 tiny ones a year ago or so.
They did nothing for a long time now there's lots.

I am not familiar with that shroom. Kind of like a hairy shroom. I treat those like discosomas, because they can spread all over the tank. If it's a fast grower/spreader, good to keep an eye on it. If not, probably nothing to worry about. Blue spot discos, which look cool, are all of a sudden everywhere. They didn't move from my Evo to the Office tank.
