Large mushroom in my versicolor enclosure

What should I do with this quickly growing mushroom?

  • Take it out, it will invade her whole enclosure!

I normally don't worry too much about shroomies in my T enclosures as they just kinda shrivel up most the time. This one, however feels excessive. I peeped it yesterday as a little maybe half inch stalk, it is now a good 3 or four inches within a day I feel like it's growing really fast, I can't tell if I'm paranoid or if it's cause for concern I have a cage cleaning tomorrow and I was going to pull it but my versi seems to love it. Is it safe to leave in there with her? She's barely a juvenile and I worry that it might take over her whole enclosure or pop the lid off should I take it out of pull it?

I have no idea if mushrooms pose any threat to my T's or not. I just do not like to see them in my enclosures, so I pull them out.
