on glass

[NeonFish]

I want to attach mushrooms on the glass of the back of the tank. What's the best way to hold them down until they attach?
thanks

Maybe try to use some putty that bonds underwater. or stack rocks closer to the back of the tank and then place the mushroom between the rock and the tank.

hmmm maybe some crazy contraption of a few suction cups and some bridal veil?

I've noticed that once you peel the zoo, it takes about 2-3 days before they'll be willing to attach. So just keep it in your tank in a flow flow section in a cup for a day or two, then try to attach it. It'll attach quickly then.

The other possibility would be to let it attach to a small rock, and just glue the rock to the glass with putty?

i used super glue gel to attach a ricordea to the back of the tank. you will have to wait until it attach to some sand before attempting this.

find a mushroom already attached on a small rock that you can move around. sandwich the rock with the shroom in the middle against the glass. the mushroom will move onto the glass in a week or so. my rocks are covered in mushrooms and when i thought it would end, they started climbing by back wall! wish i never bought them.
