Not OP and relatively new to the concept as well, but my understanding is they're typically sealed for long periods (like several months) between brief touch ups. Some people like to seal them entirely to see how long they can last before die off.
Since there are fruits, the oxygen levels were rising and it must have gotten a few degrees cooler in the last 12 hours. Humidity is already going to be perfect in that mini-ecosystem.
While a mushroom is neat, it's a good indicator of what the conditions are like inside that container. A live weather meter, as it were.
