Shroom Control

I now enter the world of Marine tanks, after 1 year of posting and asking questions and stuff :) I just traded for my first 15 gal nano. One of its main features is a large culture of red shrooms and a smaller one in blue. I have a leather coral on the top of the heap and they're getting to the base of him and pretty much starting to get everywhere. What's a man to do with shrooms? (Yes I know I've opned myself to horrible punning :)

I'm in North Salt Lake Area, and I would definately trade for frags. None are on small frag'y rocks yet, I'll set some near by to get some sprouts, or can I sever their hold and bag them? I've never fragged before.

Try this... just as a test... take 1 shroom, with an exacto cut into equal halves.Get a shot glass and put a piece of rock/rubble in it then put a half in there and set it out of direct water floe in the tank on the sand... should attach within 1 week. Next, take the second half and drive a wooden toothpick through it. Now, on the base side of the shroom where the tip of the toothpic has come through, place a dab of gel super glue and set in place on the LR(shrooms tend to prefer like less water flow and a lower light). Now, clip off the remaining toothpic at about 1/2" above the shroom... you're done. Given the scenario that your water quality is at the shrooms prefered levels and your lighting is sufficient, your shrooms should heal rather quickly and begin taking their rounder shape back on. BTW, I've performed cuttings of 4 out of 1 shroom on several occassions with the same success. (IMO) though, confidence in what your doing is very desirable so try this halving test, first.
