Jawbreaker Shroom placement??

[1mbrews8]

I have had this for a while now and it started like this:

and now is a bit smaller like this (crappy phone pic):

I have never had it more than ~3"-5" above sand but have moved it from light to shade a few times. It always looks the same and (i know it is super slow to get babies) no offspring..

Lighting is 8 overdriven t5 60"... various blue plus, kz pink, etc..


Ideas?

I think the best placement would be in my tank....Lol. Thought I would go ahead and get that out of the way. Nice shroom!

I know they really like "dirty" water

I always had great luck with my shrooms middle to high in my old tank with T5s...give it a try.

It's an expensive try lol! I was hoping someone else had experience with one?

2x Radion G1 w TIR lenses. Flow is moderate. I have an MP40Wes set at about 40% in ES Nutrient transport mode. Got the original jawbreaker, then after a couple months the mother disappeared but left two babies. These have grown and had babies as well. Maybe 1.5 years for 5 of them, maybe 6.
