Hello, I have a 30 gal reef and I have a problem with my mushrooms going crazy. I have too many and I can not get them in check... Any ideas on how I can get ride of them and get them back undercontrol. I have about 75 lbs of live fiji rock that they are growing on and spreading else where. Please help.

scraping really doesnt work, as any trace will grow back.
you can kalk em like aptasia. the big ones if you are really careful you can actually peel off, but it takes some practice and a lot of time. if you have small pieces of rock, put them in your sump where it is dark and the shrooms will stalk out, which will give you something to hold on to with tweezers if you wanna yank on em. it takes a couple days for them to loosen up/stalk though.
bang: i got a new shroom you need to see. if i forget to email you as pic of it by sundayish drop me an email and remind me. i think you will want one. it has left the category of shroom, and is now in its own class... sea truffle!

What additives are you using? Mushrooms spread like wildfire when a abundance of Iodine is used!

I do use a Iodine additive once a week in addition to my traces and others. Thanks for the points. I do like shrooms, but I want to see my bubble, leathers, green star pylops and fingers too. Thanks, Rich
PS I will see about pics
