How long for mushrooms to attach?

[Mark9]

Never done this before.
Had a largish frag thingy, stuck 3 different mushrooms to it with some mesh.
The mesh actually is some Halloween spider web stuff.
How long should I leave it until they attach?

Probably a week or so. Sometimes it takes shorter, sometimes a little longer. I'll leave mushrooms in my refugium in a strawberry basket and rubble for months.. Then when I remember, I'll oull em out and put them where I want.

Do they sometimes attach themselves to the basket?

 

[kruse47]

Mine usually attach within two weeks or so. I use a container and just set some substrate in it then leave it at the bottom of my tank.

Do they sometimes attach themselves to the basket?

Mine never have. If anything they'll float out of the basket before attaching to the side.

Update
The blue and red have attached.
The green is doing its best not to.
I have another blue and a purple i'm going to put on there as well.
Would like to go one day without sticking my hand in the tank.

Personally i say it depends on the mushroom ..

Discos take about 2-3 days for me...
FL ricordias take about a week...
Yumas 1-2 weeks.. sometimes i cant get them to attach at all.
Never tried with rhodactis.

The blue was quick, a couple days.
Red took a bit longer, the green never did.

Keep a blue actinic light on the shroom 24/7 for a couple days. It will stay inflated and attach faster. When the light goes out, it closes and floats around

I've had shrooms take days, some weeks, just let them be.

I put some in a clear plastic container and drilled a bunch of holes. some of the shrooms attached to the frag plugs I had in there, some attached directly to the plastic. SMH.

Wow interesting way to do it. Seems like it works though

 

[LadyG]

Thanks for showing this, I was wondering how to attach them.

 

[coral acquisition]

I've super glued them before and it works as well.

Mushrooms are able to slide off from the glue.
