    White mushrooms????

    Anybody dealt with these?? I found a live rock at a LFS yesterday covered with these. How rare are they???

    BTW-I did pick up the rock and put it in my tank.

    Anne,

    Could those be just bleached mushrooms? I've never seen white mushrooms myself, I;ve seen tan hairy shrooms and did a battle with them personally.However, I've never seen true white colored mushrooms. If you can post a picture of them I would love to see them.
    Kind regards,

    Gene.

    I'm with Gene on this one - I've seen some that had white on them, but the entirely white ones that I've seen have been bleached.

    Hmmm... now that the tank is full, I could convert the pool to saltwater...

    Will try to do that this evening. Please pardon crummy looking water as I have been running with skimmer off due to treating tank with melafix. Had a couple of my fish die due to pop eye before treatment was over. I went ahead with a mostly full course.

    OK, got some pictures---just need to have hubby show me how to upload them onto our local website and then it is just a matter of posting the link. BTW--one of them started showing a strand of something coming from it, so I immediately shaded it from the lights. They are getting light----just indirect light.
