Aiptasia Treated With AiptasiaX Fell On Neon Green Mushroom

I squirted Aiptasia X on an aiptasia and when I returned to the room, it had fallen from the glass onto a neon green mushroom and the mushroom had shriveled and had the aiptasia and a bunch of the Aiptasia X on it's mouth. I sucked the aiptasia off the shroom, but it still has alot of Aiptasia X that I couldn't get off on it's mouth. Is my shroom dead? Also, a zoa on the rock had a bunch on it, when I tried to brush it off, it popped all the liquid out of it and deflated. Did I really screw up?

i think i lost half a colony of zoas to aptaisa x, and still have the aptasia... it may be reef safe, but i can't believe that something else ingesting it wouldn't have an issue.

i just used "joe's juice" on about 8 aptasia, this stuff is amazing!!! no problems even when some got into the water colum and landed on other coral, or when the fish ate some of it. i recommend it.

I have had the same problems with Apstasia X and Joe's Juice. Gotta be really careful with that stuff.

Yeah, the shroom is dead. Also, 5 tiny dots of the stuff landed on the acropora next to the shroom and all those spots are dead, as well. I hope the acropora makes it. It was almost dead when I bought it and had recovered beautifully. I made a critical error, I left the HOB skilter on and that little bit of current spread the Aiptasia X around. Bummer-rookie mistake.
