Bouncing?

[Haus]

So I moved my Superman rhodactis and within a day I see these turquoise bubbles popping up on them. I hope the pictures show it well enough. Pic with the royal gramma is weeks before the move (before it split) for comparison.

D’oh! Back to “normal.” Still very nice but that turquoise was something!

So a few times a week I still see some turquoise popping up, but not as much as when I first posted this. Interesting for sure...

Did you move them up higher to the light?

 

[Haus]

I did, and since moved it back to the original level. Went heavier on blue in both spots too, but not consistent. In each place, each lighting I've seen brief pops of turquoise and typical coloring as well.

I think in alot of the shrooms the bubbling or bouncing, is a defense against the intense lighting. You never really saw this before leds. I think it's like how we get tan, they swell up to try to protect the body. And like us it can become a "cancer" where it becomes a part of its cellular structure after a while. And becomes something it passes along to its offspring. (Could be completely wrong, just my theory) I've seen this alot in blastos too. I have one that has bounce all over it in my tank, and its directly under the light fixture.
