Mushroom removal?

[Raiderwig]

Hello,

I thought this may be the best place to ask?

I was wondering if their is a safe way to remove mushrooms from a peice of LR to transplant to another piece of LR within my tank?

I have mushrooms that have outgrown the Piece of LR that they came on when I bought them.
thanks.

I use an xacto knife and slice under the rock a little to remove them whole then glue them where you want.

Thanks

sounds like I can do that! I was just worried about cutting to much of the trunk off and killing the mushroom.

Good luck killing a mushroom. As long as you get a good size chunk of the mushroom, it should be fine, so don't worry if you leave a bit on the rock. It'll probably just grow into a new mushroom.

Just try to get under the foot when you remove it. Then you'll be able to super glue the small piece of rock it is attached to.

Nope, I'm a bomber guy. Fighters are way too cramped.

some people blast it with a powerhead until it comes off.
