Green star mat

I have been very lucky with my GSP's.
Thay have proliferated and grown up the glass to the surface, not to mention everything I have placed in contact with the mat.
I now have a giant colony and two smaller ones.
One day, wifey suggested that they were behind the over flow box. After I scoffed, reminding her that corals will not grow without perfect lighting, I slid the box to the side to show her how foolish she was.
Well, I was sorta right:nervous: .
The mat hadn't grown all the way behind the box... just about 3/4th the way across.
It looks like ostrich skin...and doesn't open.
Here it is at night...rright side is "new stuff"
 
The picture is the very bottom of the mat. It spreads about 4" to the left of the "healthy " stuff.
I am thinking about scraping it off the glass and attaching it to a rock...kinda like we do with mushrooms.
Anyone tried this?

I do it to my purple starts all the time. I just super glue them to a rock. They get pretty upset and take a while to open up but they get over it :)
