Alrighty, this time you can check the horrible mushroom that is growing up on my restroom. My wife and I are concerned about this thing. We don't know how is it possible that is growing on that very hot metal tube. I'd it dangerous? How can we get rid of it permanently?
Thanks for your consideration and for reading this!

Looks like someone put a dab of expanding glue in there to seal it.
Minerals from water source.
Grease/sealant from the threads propably. You could call someone to check it out but I’d just scrape it off if it’s not leaking water.
Its not shroomz. Its chalice and you need call serviceman that comes do new pair of gaskets.
There is a small leak there. Had this happen as well, and the “growth” is minerals from the leaking water. You have a bad seal there, so call building maintenance to replace it.
It is not mushroom like everyone says. Stuff from pipes, just remove it and put new seal there (if you know how) and no more that. I had similar under my sink in Punavuori but bigger 🙂
It is not your job to fix. I doubt you would even know how. Do not touch it. You might cause a leak or something. Call maintenance. It is their job to arrange repairs.
have maintenance check it asap. It’s not supposed to leak anything. You want that fixed before your bathroom and apartment gets soaked by an awful lot of hot water, followed by multiple weeks of drying and an unscheduled rebuild of your bathroom. If it’s been like that for a long time, it’s not going to fix itself.
Minerals from pipe monster but I’m no expert so consider my advice leaky.
We require more minerals

The good stuff
I expected something like this and was bit disappointed tbh

Have you seen “Last of Us” serie.. i’m not saying that is that kind of fungus but god damn! i knew it, we are doomed!
Shower cheese it’s a delicacy, try it!
To add to others, this is many times connected to fresh warm water tap and warms up when you wash hands or take a shower. Imo, it’s a bad idea. I have had 2 separate friends have flooding because these things break catastrophically, and the fresh water just keeps pushing out
