The title basically speaks for itself. I bought a small Ricordea mushroom today, between the size of a dime and nickel, but it came on possibly the smallest piece of rubble possible. It kept getting blown over and off the rock I had it on, so I tried gluing that rock down to my aquascape. In classic fashion, I did a messy job and got superglue on the mushroom as well. Now the upper side is maybe 20% covered with superglue, with a tiny bit touching the mouth. I'm anxious that I've just killed it, and I can't find much out there as far as anything I can do to help give it a chance. Any recommendations would be great, it's ruined my day at this point

They’re pretty slimy so it should fall off quite rapidly. I’d be surprised if it’s actually sticking to it… might just be a piece of dry glue stuck in its slime at this point.
