prada Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I want to remove my hairy mushroom from a rock but the foot seems really attached to the rock and there's no way that I can remove the rock to make the procedure any easier. Please help... Thanks. Brandon. Quote
dsoz Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 Use a dull plastic object like a credit card and slowly push on the foot near the rock. Keep going around the outside in a spiral that keeps getting smaller. Take your time and don't stop to rest more than a few seconds or you will need to re-do some places. Expect it to take 15-20 minutes. If that gets too frustrating, I have used a razor blade to remove one. My goal was to "shave the rock" taking a little bit of rock dust with the anemone foot. I almost succeeded, except I missed and left a small piece of the foot on the rock. A couple weeks later, I have a baby fuzzy mushroom growing on my rock. dsoz Quote
markdadof2 Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I have always just cut or gently 'chisled' some of the rock off so that I can re-glue it somewhere else. I have even done this with the rock in place in the tank (to remove a few hairy shrooms). Good luck. Let me know if you need help! Quote
Jay Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I always slice leaving a small piece to make a new baby. Jay Quote

MissDeffiance Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Hey Nyles are you looking to part with any of those Yumas ?? Quote
Nyles Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I always have extra yumas. However I don't travel to St Helens but maybe once a year for business Quote
