Green hairy mushroom ... how to kill?

[miserkris]

I have big green hairy mushrooms that are in a big base rock. Slowly expanding. To prevent that i put Corals around it so they'd sting.

hammers and Duncan and acan can't keep them at bay. The mushroom extends above these lps and prevents light. .... killing lps and caps.

I plan on making flat purple reef epoxy like tortillas and cover them when they shrink at night. Is this ok solution?

How else can i kill them? For i can't remove this base rock.

Pls advice.

Thanks

Can you cut or chisel a section of the rock off?

If i could cut it off means I'd be able to move base rock out of dt.

Which is what i can't do.

What if i smother the outer mushrooms with epoxy tortillas? Lol.... I'll still keep the middle mushrooms since they don't give birth to new small ones that drift away. ... I'll keep them.

In a way frilly ones are better than the other purple blue superman mushrooms.

Could you not just frag and sell?

I've killed them before with Aptasia-X, shoot them in the center.

If you can get your hand in there, just take a utility razor blade and 'em off the rock the best you can. I had to this a few months ago and came up with enough to glue to rocks to take to the LFS for credit. Actually kept some of those hairy mushrooms growing in a corner of the glass to easily propagate for future credit.
What's left behind will try to grow back, but you can keep it in check.
EDIT:
What I mean by "utility razor" is just the heavy duty blade by itself without the handle.... be careful!!!!

Thanks green. If kalk doesn't work I'll do the razor thing.

I just fed those mushroom with kalk paste using a syringe. I put pellet food in then after turning off pumps. They opened up and then i did the kalk treatment.

They have all shrunk and took the kalk in mouths. Weird.

Hopefully they'd die it get small etc. Will keep y'all updated. ;-)
