New Toadstool bent over

I don't have a safe way to frag one or I would try.
not sure what you mean by safe?|
I cut mine with sharp scissors, dip the parent and the frags in iodine (easy enough to get) then into a plastic basket (a drawer organizer) with rubble and a netting over it to keep out the peckers, then it sits at the bottom of the tank for a few weeks or less and they attach. could not be easier.
great tips thankyou, ive struggled so much to get leathers/mushrooms to attach in the past, currently trying to get a bounce mushroom to attach but im unsuccessful 😬😬
 
I have used the rubber bands that the LFS bags are closed up with. I take a dry rock smashed to bits (rubble). Then I rubberband to the rock. The larger the frag piece, the easier it is obviously. Then I put them in a plastic tray that has flow and light, some clear netting will work to keep them in the tray if you have a lot of flow. then leave them a lot for some time, usually a few weeks, they will be fine.
Shrooms I toss into a schroom basked, small 3d printed box with 1 opening and a suction cup, you could easily use an acclimation box or one of those net type fish a cheap thing like that. put a bunch of rubble or rock substrate, they will attach the key is patience, which none of us has.
