    My once purple fuzzy mushrooms have turned white. Why?

    Oh, I forgot to say why I use phytoplankton. I was told to use it every few days (1 teaspoon) to feed the soft corals (the tree, the mushrooms, the zoanthus, etc) which might not be able to get much out of the brine shrimp or the cyclops.

Up until about two weeks ago they looked fine. They had a little blue/white iridescense on their tips which...
