I am totally not sure how to remove them since their "bottoms" seem to be rooted pretty tightly in the rock and the piece they are on is a good size making it extremely difficult to remove from my tank.

I only wonder about them not being mushrooms since these guys seem to pop up everywhere...I have 3 on my glass, a few on my in tank skimmer, one of my thermometer..plus on some rocks away from where the bigger ones are.

Not sure what to do with them.... since none of my livestock seems to be effected just that these guys are taking over my tank.

They are mushrooms , Greg (snappy) had thousands in his tank and couldn't control them , I got a couple off him as I though try were nice looking and they multiply like no tomorrow and I was lucky enough to just give it away rock and all, I wouldn't be surprised if theyve been getting around , was about 2 yrs ago

Very sticky and about the size of a loonie. Gold and greenish in color.
