    i never used to feed my shrooms, but someone told me to add "cyclop-eeze" to the water about 1 - 2 times a week depending on how many corals you have in your tank. since i have been adding it my growth rate on my shrooms have doubled. you might want to consider adding a iodine supplement to the water. softies love it. i am using the long acting one from kent "tech 1" i know it is a lot but i think it works. of course what might work for me might not work for you.. good luck

    What supplements should be added to encourage mushroom growth and multiplication? I want to frag my green and purple for a few friends of mine.
