Deadpool Mushroom

<p>In general, mushroom corals coming from the genus Discosoma are classified as a false coral without a skeleton, although their internal structures are the same with stony corals. Their stalk is very small that is located just above the pedal disc which is the area where they attach themselves to the substrate.<br /><br />This is the water parameters for cultivating Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma: </p> <ul> <li>Calcium: 400 - 450 ppm</li> <li>Alkalinity: 2.86 - 4.29 MEQ/L (8 - 12 dKH)</li> <li>Phosphates: 0</li> <li>Magnesium: 1200 - 1350</li> <li>Strontium: 8 - 10</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Temperature: </span>72° - 78° F (22° - 26° C)</li> <li><span class="subListHeading1">Salinity / Specific Gravity:</span> 1.023 - 1.025</li> <li>pH: 8.1 - 8.4</li> </ul>

<p>In the wild, Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma has developed a symbiotic feeding relationship with marine algae called zooxanthellae that are living within their tissues. But in captivity, you have to feed them with nanoplankton and you may add dissolved organics in the water.</p>

<p>A mature tank is highly recommended in propagating Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma. They must be set at the bottom of the tank to simulate their natural wild environment.</p>

<p>The Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma requires moderate lighting and moderate water flow.</p>

<p>The Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma has a semi-aggressive behavior. Proper spacing must be observed in relation to other coral species in the tank.</p>

<p>The Deadpool Mushroom Discosoma is a marine species. Therefore, salinity must be maintained thoroughly at 1.023 to 1.025 s<span class="subListHeading1">pecific gravity.</span></p>

<p>Deadpool Mushroom has stinging tentacles on the edge of their discus that they will use to sting nearby corals. This is why mushrooms are sometimes called mushroom anemonies.</p>
