Mushrooms overrunning SPSs

[phenom5]

I just asked the same question at my LFS and he told me to inject them with a small amount of lemon juice. Haven't tried it yet, I'm just not sure about putting lemon juice in my reef.

Doesn't work. Neither does injecting them with hot vinegar. Kalk paste works the best out of the things I've tried, but even it is kinda hit or miss.

I'm really contemplating unmounting all of my SPS, and swapping out my LR. Not looking forward to that, but...

Another thing i heard was that a scribbled rabbit fish would eat them. I cant confirm this though, as I have never tried it. Probably depends on the individual fish.

I used vinegar on mine and it killed most of them. A second round will take the rest of them out .

Anyone try the majano wand for mushrooms?

About too, once it arrives from MaeineDepot...

I don't think the flow thing works as I have some mushrooms growing on my sps right in front of my vortech. I will just frag them off and try to sell them as mushroom frags.

I've tried just about everything to kill mushrooms. In the end, I needed to scrape the rock - or even better cut it with bone cutters. If you leave anything behind not only will the mushroom re-grow but often they'll multiply.
