    Is this a question? It looks bleached to me. What kind of lights do you have and can you post your tank parameters.

    I think he's asking why his mushroom is white?

    With just a picture, we can only assume it is stressed out for some reason. Maybe it wasn't acclimated to your lights properly or your parameters are not at ideal levels.

    How are your parameters? The background in the picture looks very bright. What size tank and lights?

    I'm not sure I understand your lighting but a suggestion could be to put the mushroom in a shaded spot in your tank (although from the picture, perhaps it is??)
