I got a frag the other day that had three Ricordia Mushrooms on it. They are happy and healthy, and this has given rise to a question.
Will they grow over top of each other?
They are bumping up against each other, and I am wondering if I should move them further away from each other. In that case, does the LFS glue them on the rock?
37g reef.
Frag tank in progress.

You can leave them if yiu wish they will push on each other, I like them that  way, but they wont hurt each other.
If you want to move them you pull them from the rock and rubber band them or zip tie them to a rock, I prefer the Zip tie better! They will grow to the new rock and then you can remove the zip tie/rubber band and it will stay.

They no doubt grew that way and will be fine. I would just leave them.
