Went to check on my frag tank and I couldn’t find my one mushroom anywhere then saw it sucked into a power head. Got it out but the small rocks it was attached too on the frag plug it decided to come off. Any tips on getting a mushroom back on a frag plug. I’m guessing glue doesn’t work

Make a low flow container out of disposable Tupperware with a bunch of holes drilled into it. Preferably, use a clear lid with holes drilled. Place the loose shroom along with some rubble in the Tupperware and place it in the tank. Within, hopefully, less than two weeks it will attach to a piece of rubble, and you are done. If you place the Tupperware in a low enough section of the tank you can go without the lid.

This is what I’ve come up with for now and some aragonite on the bottom. Hope it works
