Mushroom questions

[BUlicny]

I have a colony of mushrooms that are doing this. It looks like they are putting off little seed looking things. They attach themselves to the glass or the rock. Can anyone tell me what is going on with this? Is it normal? Are they breeding? Some what concerned. All my water readings are normal. I do water changes once very two weeks. Any help will be appreciated. picture attached.

Are flat worms real bad for the tank? The fish seems to eat them.

I believe quick FW dip will kill the Flat worms quite quickly. I know its fine with leathers. Not 100% positive with shrooms though.

So, are they eating the mushrooms? If so, how do I really get rid of them. OR, do I need to get rid of them. Now Im worried.

I did a quick search, Here is one link describing a FW dip method. Of course, use RO water.

Thank you. I will try the FW dip tomorrow and see how it works.
