Help PLease new frags

ya there deff peppermints

 

Maybe they were just eating the glue? i used krazyglue gel

 

highly probable. I've seen it many times now. (same glue too!)

I wouldn't worry about it at all.

 

oh yeah, the glue won't hold shrooms anyway... they'll come off. I lost two that way when I first started.... I later found them (months later) in random spots on the substrate...




put the shrooms in a jar with rubble. put some veil material as a lid held down with a rubber band to keep snails, etc out. Wait a week or two.

Shrooms will attach themselves to a piece of rubble. Glue rubble wherever you want and that will hold.

 

ok the rocks i mounted them to are like rubble rocks, i tryed to wedge them in cracks and the shrimp moved them, i didnt have any larger peices to mount them to. I have them both in my sump now with a 50/50 light on if for now.

 

hmmm ok ill have to try that vail mesh??? like??

 

yes?

I would (I did).

 

hmm now that they are glues i dont wanna rip them off they seem like they took a good hold. is this not going to last beacuse of the glue or should i just give it time to bond over the glue onto the rock?

 

if it were me, I would just give it time to bond to the rock with that glue as you say at this point... I woudl do this by dropping it in a jar or some other low flow area to give it a chance...

you can try just sticking the rock to your main rock... it might hold.... if it doesn't, it'll be adrift and you might have a hard time finding it

keep us posted on how it works for you

Hate to say it but I've read more than a few accounts of peppermint shrimp developing a taste for coral so I'd keep an eye on the shrimp and if it continues to pick at your coral, I'd trap it and get rid of it.
