Funky Mushroom?!?

I added some Kent calcium buffer a and b last night just before the lights went out. Like I always do. about a minute later my giant frilly mushroom starts to do this weird thing. It spews out whatever is inside of it. I dont know if it is its digestive tract, or some reproductive organs or what. I have two mushrooms and they both reacted. Is this normal? Has anyone else's mushrooms done this? I think I remember reading about someone else who had this and that their mushrooms are fine, but i just have to know. I really like these mushrooms and i would hate for them to die.
Sorry about the image quality, Its hard to get the file small enough...

They just do not like sudden changes, water changes ect, try ading slowly and in current so they do not notice or maybe your putting too much? but mine do it when I change water too quikly.

There is a big current that runs past these mushrooms. I have always added cb a+b at night. Im guessing that they will be alright though because they look fine today.

Mine did that the last time I did a water change. We added the water on the other side of tank and did the same procedure as always I have no idea why, but it scared me to death. They are perfectly fine now.

Thanks for you replies. I wasnt too worried because the other two types of mushrooms I have werent affected at all. Its good to know that I'm no alone here.
