A picture would help to identify them
Usually mushrooms are pretty hardy and easy to frag.
Chances are they will survive, try to put some rock rubble in a glass or something in the bottom of the tank and put the mushrooms in there and wait for them to reattach to a rock and place them in the desired area

Use Photobucket and post the picture there. You copy the link they assign it and post the link here.

Nope still no photos...on that page try right clicking on the photo, select view image, then copy paste that address into the bar for the yellow mountain icon.
How long has it been since you cut them? 24 hours?

I see them when I click. Probably because I'm a member of photobucket. Copy the link next to IMG. Paste in your reply.
That said, put them next to some rocks or crazy glue their base to a small rock or shell. Just make sure they don't get sucked up by the power heads or pump strainers. They should attach if the conditions are good.

Crazy glue. Any cyanoacrylate gel. I use the LocTite gel from Home Depot.
Dry the base real well with a paper towel and use the glue. After 10 seconds of curing you can put it back in the tank with low flow.

They will attach to a rock they are placed next to, but the flow tends to move them before they can. The glue gives them a chance to attach without being blown away.

Maybe. They will not do well getting blown around on the sand.

No. They need to have the head cut from the base.
When I cut them I always had a nice niche to wedge them in. After a few days to a week they attach.
