i have a small rock with purple and blue ones.. anyone know how to get them off rock? i cut them on rock and they multiply,but can get them off

 

You just have to have patience and they'll eventually spread off the rock.

 

so you cant cut them off and put on small rock for fraggin? i was wondering how to get them from my big rock onto a small one so i can take to a friends tank.

 

As long as they're in pretty good shape you can just cut them into two pieces rite down the middle where the mouth is and net or rubberband the piece you cut off to another rock. It should regrow into another Ric. Be sure to keep the cut piece out of alot of flow.

 

so i can slice then off rock too ? i just noticed they so close unlike the disc type shrooms.. didnt know how to remove them. i have been rubberbanding them to divide now its time to move them cause they covered my small rock. thanks ill try to slice one off and put it on another rock

 

Don't slice it off the rock. Cut one rite down the middle.

 

so how do i frag it so i can take it to friends tank? i want to keep my rock that they are now on. i have been splitting them and there are tons now, but i cant slice them off rock like disc type shrooms

 

Do a google search on fragging Ric or if somebody else will respond that has more experience with fragging ricordia to get the answers to your questions.
