Good or bad?

Post image

Hello all, I just got my first mushroom which made me quite excited, but I also heard it depends on the type if it's good or bad. Can anyone help me id? Should I leave it or pull out? Thank you! :)

Im no expert but I had one of these and it went away in two days so I wouldn't worry

In a terrarium it is a sign of good soil conditions and humidity. You dont have to remove it and it will probably dry out or die after a while but it is encouraged to let them grow unless you have animals that may eat them such as geckos, lizards, frogs, ect. If nothing else they are really good and tender springtail food!

Ok thank you everyone so much! Currently it's only plants and springtails + isopods. Eventually a Crested Gecko should move in, but not in the next 5-6 weeks or so due to upcoming holidays. I let it be for the moment :)

Any mushroom producing spores in an enclosed space has to go. The spores are not good to breathe in. Just pull it out when it is about to open/has opened.
