mushroom question...ish

[saltyfins]

is it something I am doing wrong, or is it normal per se, for mushrooms to be so small when lights come on, then get larger throughout the day? this is something I just happened to notice, and I don't like it. only because I"m not sure it's normal. everything seems small in the morning. yes. my glasses are on

Totally normal for mushrooms

Yes this is normal. Mushrooms get larger to maximize light absorption

Normal.

Close up at night. Open up during the day to catch the sunlight.

Totally normal
Here is my St Thomas just waking up...

ok! thanks so much, everyone. I have some green ones I really like a lot, and started over analyzing if I needed to do this or that....which is exactly what I need to STOP doing. I had much better luck with just leaving things alone! appreciate the feedback

Somethings you need to react to right away, like leaks, stray current, etc, Coral behavior isn't one of them, unless they all do something at the same time. Sometimes corals are just on there own schedule Mushrooms tend to be one of the easier hearty species out there, not to say that they don't have there issue but it takes a lot to put them in a bad place.

Post a pic of this mushroom I'm curious!
