How to Care for Green Striped Mushrooms written by Dave Burr Green Striped Mushrooms are a classic beginner coral but will stand out in the nicest of reef tanks. They will grow well in most reef aquariums. Placement: Mount the Green Striped Mushrooms using IC gel glue, or putty, in the bottom half of the aquarium where they can reproduce and expand their colonies over the rock. If you do not want them growing on your your main rock structure try creating a mushroom island by mounting several types of mushrooms to one larger rock and placing it as an island in your sand bed. Feeding: Although symbiotic algae called zooxanthellae hosted within them supply some of their nutritional requirements through photosynthesis they do benefit from supplemental feedings of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and/or marine snow. Lighting & Flow Requirements: Green Striped Mushrooms require low to moderate water
