I dislike green disco shrooms. They came in on a rock and now I have to many. My problem is my tanks 95% acros and the disco shrooms release and sting/kill anything they come in contact with.
I remove 5-6 every couple weeks and they just keep comming.

Oh gosh, I didn't know they bother other corals! I have a rock off to the side in my tank with a bunch of green discos... Hooing they don't spread to the other rocks...

Man, some of your reefs with these nice mushrooms and you want to get rid of them, It’s my dream to have my nano looking like that. I’d gladly try grab some but it’s a shame I’m in the UK.
I got a rock with like 50 shrooms on it from a local reefer who had too many - I love them! Maybe you can find a person close to you who is tired of theirs taking over their tank, lol.

Its when they release that causes issues. They do this frequently in my tank.

and now they have "walked" all over of the lover level of my rock work...

Oh gotcha. I plan to keep other corals on the other rock island but, will keep an eye out for rogue mushrooms. ;)

I have a couple really nice ones at home I will have to get some photos of when I get home later tonight!
Also, these 6 newbies are on my front step waiting for me to get home and pop them in my tanks!
