Jurgy Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I have a couple floating mushrooms they have detached from there rocks. Does anyone have any tips on how get them re-attached to a rock? I tried to use a string and tie the mushroom to a rock, that didn't work however the mushroom split and now I have two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Hydro Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 You can use frag glue, but you have to be quick, they slime up and then the glue doesn't stick. They can decide to let go again anytime, or just move off of the rock you glued them to. There are some glues that can be used underwater (the thicker kinds) if you can't remove the rock.

Timfish Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 My experience super glue works as good as anything but even it doesn't work that good unless the mushroom has some gravel or sand stuck to it's foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjohn Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 I put some gravel in a small bowl in the tank and put the mushroom on top. That keeps him stationary. After he attaches to some gravel, then I glue the gravel down. That usually works. Not always but usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted June 29, 2010 Share Posted June 29, 2010 Yep, use a small piece of fish net or bridal veil to keep them on the frag plug/shell/rubble. After a few days they will attach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
