Mushrooms on my rock.

I saw something the other day that drew my attention, like 5 or 6 little mushrooms, maybe the size of a pencil's eraser each. This were kind of what they looked like:

My question is, i have a simple FOWLR tank with simple, will they survive with such low lighting?

Thanks, Leo

They will do ok with low light but probably wont grow as much. How much light do you have on the tank?

They are blue mushrooms





As stated above they will grow in regular flourecent lighting but their growth will be slow.

I have no idea how much light i have, but i know its not much, whatever came with the tank itself. I never bothered with the light because i want fish only for now

how long has the tank been up?

I have some ricordia (mushrooms that look cool) and they are starting to reproduce, I have two itty bitty little ones nearby the two big ones. dang of an ex killed off the rest of the ones I used to have.
