I want to eradicate the schrooms on my live rock. I've removed the rock and let it sit outside (55/30 degrees day/night) for a week. Are the schrooms (and of course everything else) all dead now or will they come back?

they are probably dead. only way to know is cure it and find out.

in the future, how about putting the rock in another tank and joes juicing the big ones, then kalk pasting whats left.

I hope they were ugly shrooms since you killed them, otherwise people might have traded for them.

Yeah, they were ugly and taking over the tank. I guess you're right. I could just start curing the rock and see if the schrooms come back.

They are probably dead now, but the only way to for sure get rid of them is to chip off the rock under their foot. Any traces left of them and they could come back. But, doubtful if you left them outside for a week.

Sell the mushroom rocks and use the money to get new live rock.
Since everything on the rock is now dead...let it sit in freshwater for a day or so...any marine creature will be dead.
