My water parameterGood morning and welcome to MR. Some additional information on water parameters would me helpful for us to offer valuable feedback.
You mean something like curly string? Yup.. A lot of filaments appear, not only at the middle but almost covered the whole body of itHard to tell from the picture. Is it spitting out it's guts (mesenterial filaments)?
They project them out thru their mouth when they are not happy with their present condition.
I find they do it most often due to water parameters mostly, Especially when the parameter's change very fast. Like too quick of an acclimation, or adding calc and alk additives too quickly, etc.
Lighting, another coral agitating them, and too strong of flow can cause it too.
It's not the end for the mushroom, then can recover pretty quickly once the conditions around them are better.
Sorry for bad quality of picture.. I'll post better picture when the light is onMushrooms can look awful when they divide. A clearer or higher resolution picture will help the forum members help you.
