Question removing and attaching mushrooms from live rick

i have some ricordea and some blue mushrooms that are already on some live rock in my tank and i want to get rid of the piece of rock that they are on, and remove it from my tank. is there any way that i can get the existing mushrooms off of the rock and how should i go about attaching them to another piece of rock in my tank? should i use epoxy or some other method? any help would be appreciated.

I would cut the shrooms off with a sharp pair of scissors, put them in a plastic bowl with some small rubble or crushed coral, let them attach to the rubble,(takes a week or so) and then attach them where you want them with super glue gel. I find it difficult to just glue them on without the rubble, they tend to come loose and then I loose them.

Good luck!!
