The base mushroom is attached to a big piece of rock - it's in the iodine dip base right now. Should I not return that rock to the tank, even after rinsing? Will it have soaked up too much iodine that will leach back into the tank?
think just rinse well ,maybe a 2nd if large rock, should be fine.

Fragged and cropped and put back in the tank. Lost a lot to bad tissue, but I've got ten pieces fragged onto rubble that are out and looking okay. Not sure about the stalk yet - will see.

Thanks for all the help!

How’d it end up? I’m going thru the same thing right now with one of mine. I had to cut it to pieces and just put them into the tank on sandbed
