I was cleaning the glass and my mushroom just flipped and all the guts have been ripped out?! I know there has been warfare in the tank but the mushroom was far away from my toadstool so I did not think this would happen. What do I do? I also have sexy shrimp but they NEVER go towards this coral.

I have I put it in a lower flow zone. Is there a chance it can die? It just seems to ripped apart..I noticed it spewed guts a few days ago but didn't realize the extent.
Shrooms should always be low light low flow. Yea if it expelled it's gizzards, probably toast but may as well wait and see because you can't repair that.

It was in low light and flow I just moved it to be even more disturbed. Well, this is sad to know it will die :( does this mean something ate it?

No, shrooms do this when they are under extreme stress or agitated. Sometimes they ingest it back in and recover and othertimes they don't. Just leave it be and see what happens.
