Fraging Question

[SkiFletch]

I will try in a couple of weeks, and will repost what I did.

I've seen dual color morph actinodiscuss species that were created "surgically". Half the shroom is the green variety, other half is the blue. Offspring are either all green, all blue, or half and half like the parent. Pretty neat. Having seen that, I suppose your method would work bonesnapper...

I will see what happens. Thanks everyone.

I've ground them, smashed them, sliced them, shocked them, Ive exposed them to air for longer than ten minutes, I've put them in tanks before they were even close to cycled, I have them in a tank with a busted heater where it got up to 96*F and the shrooms were fine.

I don't think I would want to be one of your mushrooms. You have so many because they're trying to build up their numbers and retaliate.

Thanks for all of the answers. B)

Haha, I had my first one and I remember posting here and someone saying they are near impossible to kill...I thought..."Really?" I still have that first musrhoom today, it's in my pico tank...they really are HARD to kill!

Just a quick question on fragging mushrooms. I lost a really beautiful green mushroom a month ago and have not found a similar one since (it just curled up and died). However there does seem to be another mushroom growing on the same rock and it looks as if it will be the same as the one I lost. How soon can it be fragged ? It is about 2cms in diam now?

You could rag it now, its important when fragging them to make sure each piece has part of the mouth on it...so the challenge with a specimen so small would be in doing that. Might as well wait.

OK, thanks Chris, I will wait a bit, just can't lose another, its so amazingly beautiful...
