Toadstool Question

[ReefNut]

I picked up a nice Tyree baby toadstool from a fellow reefer.
Its been over a week and I cant get it to stay put.I tried gently placing, wedging into rockwork,rubber banded to pc of rubble and even gluing it.
Don't know what else to try.
Any help appreciated
Thanks

Thread and needle has always worked for me. Give it a week or so to attach and cut thread.

+1 thread and needle works magic. U can glue the thread on the rock with icgel or tie it around the rock rubble

Can you explain how this is done.
I dont want to kill it by sewing it death.

Thread a sewing needle, and push it through the base of your toadstool and around a piece of rubble or frag plug/disc. Twice is usually enough for me, and as Noel mention, you can also glue the thread to the rubble/plug/disc in case the thread pulls loose. Wait till it attaches and cut thread and pull; just like after tooth extraction :teeth:

Thanks,
Ill it a give it a try.
Any thread will do?

Yea, i just use whatever that came in a travel sized sewing kit.

If you have a hole for it I usually use a toothpick through the base of the leather and stick it where I want. After a couple weeks I pull the toothpick right out and the coral stays put
