To be honest, I don’t measure par on my tank. These shroom are from my friend tank, I just got them in hope to recover them. They are in my Nuvo 40gal, water parameters is good, I am using Radion gen5 blue with medium intensity. My other shroom and zoa doing ok.

They can be recovered... high nutrient water, dose zoox., and PAR at about 200.

If you'd like, I can help provide shroom medical care if you need as well. (But no guarantees) Doing it for @bfirecat 's OG at the moment.

I will try them for a couple week to see what happen. Look like low flow, low light, high nutrient ( feeding reef roids) is importance.

You can still feed reefroids but the nitrates does far more good around the clock...in between feedings

Will have to defer to @bfirecat on how long he's had it. That is his OG that I am nursing.

Here's mine - had it about 1 yr. Keeping under super high PAR:

What is this zoox that you are dosing? I picked up a pretty bleached out "sriracha" mushroom from Diablo Corals a couple months back that's very very slowly regaining its color at the edges. It doesn't really react to direct feeding like some of my other shrooms so maybe the zoox would help a bit. It also doesn't really shrivel up at night like all the other do.

I’ve found Yumas under a pile of live rock and ghostly white. As others have said, high nutrient water and light. I use the water change water I vacuum out of my DTs and sumps. I gradually ramp up the light intensity, starting them in the shade and then slowly moving them right under a lamp.
