No. Many of the larger rock-hugging Mushrooms like Green Hairy, and Ricordea suffer significant casualties when propogated in this manner.
How do YOU attach the cut piece to a rock? I thought about using fishing line....
I set it on a rock in a calm part of my refugium. A tray of warm tank water would work equally well.
If all the water readings are excellent how long does it take to grow a new top on the base you cut the top off of?
Depends on the type of mushroom. about 2 weeks, twice that for "True Blue", half that for Reds.
After you cut them and attach them where in the light spectrum do you place them? I heard once before frags need more light then the established ones.
Doesn't matter. They can quickly acclimate to reasonable light levels.
