mushrooms melted

first i had some green hairy shrooms that were doing fine and then one morning i find that they have turned into a pinkish/brownish bubbly mess. i clean off the affected rock and place the shrooms that were still left back in the tank. within 5 hours the rest of the shrooms had the same condition. i immediatly removed the rock and threw it away because some of the "goo" had gotten on some of my rodactis'. i cleaned that off and those seem to be doing fine. today i found some purple discos with the same condition. does anyone know what this is. please help. tank is a 75g rr aga with 4 65w pc's and 150lbs of live rock. everything else in the tank is very happy. the only thing that has changed is that i have been doing a lot more water changes than before because of cyano bacteria. thanks in advance.
