  • Let's learn about some MUSHROOMS! They tend to call under four different categories being; Discosoma, Rhodactic, Ricordea, or Pseudocorynactic. Mushrooms are great for beginners because they are very hardy and they do not require high end LED lights to take care of them. They live primarily off filter feeding, but can also increase growth by spot feeding them different coral foods.

    The mushrooms that I used to have in my 90 gal, looked a lot like the disco reds like what you show, in the video. After I added an in-tank refugium, they all moved to the corner underneath it, because I had metal halide lighting hood. The just preferred the corner where the light wasn't very bright. They also got much larger quickly after they moved.

    Thanks for the reply on stocking order in my aquarium. Keep up the vids on the corals and fish. One things needed is the price point of the fish or coral please have links of website you are able to the low prices you mentioned. Most the time i dont see anywhere sell at those prices. Idc if they are even out of stock, just hook us up with the links please thanks

    Hi Brock, that is a very complete video about mushrooms. Definetly they are one of my favourite corals. I would like to ask you a question. I hace a green rodactis and very often it expulse its guts out of its mouth. Do you know why this happens? Greetings from México!!

    • @BrockLeonard
      @BrockLeonard  Před 3 lety +1

      Digestion tends to be the cause of it. Are you feeding them often? Sometimes too much feeding can cause them to stick out that portion of their mouth. I would also check parameters. High salinity and high nitrates can be the cause as well.. Thanks for coming out to watch!!

    I have a 4 maybe 5 inch yuma, that has never had a baby or split! It only attached to a small rock much smaller then itself. Once I accidetally cut a piece off and it didint die. Not sure what happened to the piece though. I dont want to cut through the mouth because I think it would look very starge! This thing is a monster! LOL Do you think I can cut pieces of it or does it have to be through the mouth? Also what about stinging? Pretty sure my Rhodatis has taken out other shrooms! I want to put them all together on a big rock in frag tank but is that usafe? Also my huge candy crush came loose the other day them it just melted into goo when I placed him back in cage! Why would that happen?

    • @BrockLeonard
      @BrockLeonard  Před 4 lety

      I'd recommend putting the frag plug near a rock at the bottom instead of removing. That way it won't float around the tank.

    Hey boss, Been following for a while. I am ready for my first coral. I am running a c- ray 200 LED. I really want one but scared that it take over my tank. Any suggestions on when to clip or take care of. I am having difficulties finding coral care. I know about elements and such, but like coral care as in maintaining like a lawn lol. I am just afraid and figured this would be the first step towards the goal.

    • @BrockLeonard
      @BrockLeonard  Před 2 lety

      I would recommend rock placement be your biggest concern. For the mushrooms, place them on a rock that is not touching any other rocks around, that way they are forced to populate only that one.

      Is there less current toward the corners of your tank? I do not think it would hurt to put him someone very calm, even if it had to be higher up in the tank.

      It is definitely possible. Put it as far to the edge as you can so they will want to grow in a downward pattern.
