Do Toadstools multiply on their own?

[bacia]

I have a toadstool in a 75 and it is getting huge! I have heard you can cut pieces off of them but do they multiply on their own? Mine has what looks like baby toadstools growing under the top about half inch from where the polyps are. First I thought it was crazy polyps growing under the crown but now they look like tiny replicas of the big one. they have a thin stalk with a tiny nob at the end and 3 or 4 polyps growing out of the nob? What are they? Will they fall off and grow? Should I cut them off or leave them on? Thanks

they are baby toadstools, they'll fall off on their own, ive had my toadstool for 8 months and it hasnt multiplied once

WOW. I thought that they might be babies. Thanks mrdc and fedukeford. If it makes you feel any better the toadstool was in a set up tank that I bought with everything in it about 5 months ago. This toadstool was big then. It has grown alot though. It seems to really like the T5's it's growing under.
