Default mini carpet nem help!

As the title states, I started to notice a bunch of ??fuzzy mushroom looking type growths in my 55gal tank about 6 months (if not longer) ago. What started as one or two, has quickly increased to well over I'd say 15. Another forum I am on had a member suggest it was a mini carpet hem as it is super sticky and does retract when touched. As they are reproducing so much is there a good way to remove them? Or help decrease the rate these guys are reproducing? Or does anyone want some so I can get rid of them (I seriously have a lot of these boogers)? Any thoughts on these would be super awesome!!
Or can someone ID if these are for sure mini carpet nems?

Sorry I can't post a pic...for some reason it is not letting me... that or I am totally doing it wrong.

these look like muchrooms



and these could be maxi mini.Although a better photos would be best.I never heard of that much reproduction on the maxi minis unless the are cut up even then they tend to take a longer time to heal as their original round size.
