I need help. I've tried numerous ways to get mushrooms to attach using a mushroom box with gravel in the bottom, a rubber band holding them to a mounting plug and various other means and it seems like they never want to attach. What is everybody's tried and true methods for getting these attached? I don't want to glue them because I'm pretty sure it would kill them. Appreciate the Insight guys and gals

I've always had good luck with the corner of my tank and several pieces of shells and old chunks of debris but that being said the box with gravel bixnever worked...try placing them slightly under the chunks so they have to try to extend to reach the light...often they will grab hold
