Detached 'rooms

[robertifly]

Got some mushrooms last week in a shipment with some other things but when I got it several of the mushrooms were no longer attached to their rock, were just loose in the bag and are now just loose in the tank. What to do? I wound like for them to be attached to the same rock or a least attched to any rock instead of just loose on the bottom. Any suggestions, what do you guys do in cases like this?

You can use some plastic mesh to hold the foot down to the rock you want to attach it to. Dont make it too tight just enough to keep it from floatig away or turning over. The foot will attach to the rock in ten days or so. It might attach even sooner but give it 10 to forteen days to really get a good grip!

thanks kingfisher62, will gather them up and see if they will re attach to the orignal rock.

The mushrooms will attach to your sand in your tank in a week or two, you will see the gravel attach to the foot. Take them out , dry the gravel,put sugerglue gel on the gravel and attach to rubble or frag discs.

My mushrooms did the same. One of my best looking shrooms came attached to the bottom of a Zoo Rock, cut it off and waited for it to attach.
