Managed to get a small series of shots of a large mushroom in my work nano as it closed up and then re-opened.

First here's an old shot of it in its normal position - this was take a few weeks ago, it has got larger since then (and I have also got rid of some of the cyano :) )

And lastly opening up again. I think the bugger is trying to nosh on the grteen clown goby who keeps sitting on top of him. THe fish is too quick for him though.

Sorry about the reflections, I can't switch the lights off otherwise the rest of the office complains.

Cheers, Eddie

Wonderful sequence of shots! Thanks for sharing them with us!

You're blessed to have that tank in your office! I'd like to setup a (freshwater) tank here, but I don't feel comfortable with leaving it unattended each weekend. I'm a freak.
 
Very,very awesome, watching the mushrooms close up at the end of the night is my favorite part of staying after hours at my lfs :wub:
 
:kewlpics: Very cool pics, and a very nice looking mushroom, thanks for sharing.
