I have a bioactive enclosure with a gargoyle gecko inside. It's filled with spring tails, dairy cows, powder blue isopods and one earth worm that I can't get out….
I've just got back from a 4 day holiday and noticed quite a lot of mycelium growth on the side of the tank. This is a pretty big ensclosure, 45cm x 60cm x 60cm. So has loads of soil in it (that maybe has dried out over the past few days from me being away) but it is usual watered daily and kept moist enough for the plants in the enclosure. I'm wondering if the mycelium growth needs taken care of or will the isopods/springtails just munch away on it? I've never seen such a large bloom before in my enclosure and it's slightly concerningš¤

Depends how many u have but I would be concerned about them not eating it fast enough and it letting spores out and taking over the tank.these come out super easily just pick them out
Plus spores are no good for respiratory systems of small animals
