what is coming out of my mushroom s mouth?

Hi everybody,
I have one single piece of mushroom in my tank. My tank has been set up for 7 months now.
I walked by my tank just before the light went out and I saw string looking thing coming out and then few seconds later something white was trying to come out.

What in the world is going on?

 

Possibly mesentary, no big deal unless you see many strands of it.

 

Mesenterial filaments it sounds like the white stuff, the other maybe poop or zooxanthellae.

 

You lost me on this one. I googled it and this is what I found. Could you please explain?
