Thank you Matt for answering my request. For your first task.....I just purchased a medium sized rock full of metallic green mushrooms and right in the middle is a colony of zoes growing. There are probally about 8 in the colony. I want to remove them from the rock and attach to a different piece. How can I do this without killing anything?
Thanks, Cari

use a razor blade cutting into the rock under the zoos to take them off the rock.then use superglue gel to glue them to another rock.i'm sure you know this,but they are poisonous.
