What is the best way to mount Ricordea to a rock?

Walter, my favorite mushroom mounting technique is gluing a piece of onion bag over the shrooms(zoos, rics, etc) to hold them in place while they attach. Less patient methods might involve a needle and thread.

Do you then just leave the onion bag on there forever? Sounds almost too easy :biggrin: Thanks

I had some pretty good success drying off the bottom and gluing them on real fast before they slimed up again... :biggrin:

Let the mushroom attack to a piece of coral off the sand bed then glue the peice to the rock work.

No, I take the onion bag off once it's attached (about a week)

Cool, thanks everyone!

Walter, I have used elastic bands with pretty good success. Sometimes they come loose, but usually attach.

I recently attached one that had been floating around for a long time with LocTite Gel. :mrgreen:
