Tips to spread mushrooms?

[michmo]

Hi, you have any tips what Mushrooms need to spread?
My eclectus never multiply, i have it since 2 years

 

[Katrina71]

Some of mine spread very easily, some don't. I guess it depends on the type.

Can eclectus or jawbreaker spread?

Can eclectus or jawbreaker spread?

Yes.

There's too many ways to count how to make them spread, and too many reasons to list why yours may not be. Some of these will sound like an oxymoron, but I assure you, I'm not joking...

- Maybe it's just got enough of everything to survive, but not thrive
- Maybe it's too happy
- Maybe it's not happy enough
- Maybe it needs more / less light
- Maybe it needs more / less flow

What works for some, doesn't work for others. Some need high flow to reproduce, some need low flow, some like high light, some like how light, some need to be agitated and stressed out, some need to be happy. They're all individuals, not only within themselves, but within the environment of your tank.

Here's some food for thought -- The definition of insanity, disputed to be attributed to Albert Einstein, Mark Twain, and Benjamin Franklin;
- “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results”

If it's been two years, the mushroom is hinting to change things up

When I feed my corals reef roids I take a lttle in syringe and spray a little over mushrooms too. I went from 3 to 13 in 8months

You can allways frag it with a razor. It's scary but I've always had good success with mushrooms healing

Once I read about a guy that took some of his mushrooms - mixed them a little in a blender and let the juice go into the DT. After a while - the DT was full of small mushrooms. I have not test this by myself - only read about it - how dare to try ?
