It depends upon what you actually got for your sixer - a single loose 'shroom or a huge chunk of rock festooned with stuff. Maybe they were unloading on you, or you got a good deal and it should have been acclimatized better when dunked into your tank.

 

 

Then again there is always the standard Physh1 Disclaimer of Death for Mushrooms:
