I dropped my shrooms!

I was placing a new frag of blue mushrooms and I dropped the frag upside down. Will this cause any damage? They look pretty beat up right now. Not sure if that is because they were just placed in the tank or because i dropped them on their heads!

It's a great looking frag. Ihope I didn't screw it up.

Shrooms are tough as hell, they will come back even if you did manage to damage them.

I have seen shrooms come back from an attempted fragging. That is, they didn't get cut all the way through to the foot. But they healed right back up in no time. Dropping them certainly should do no damage at all.

I've dropped my poor little shrooms more than enough times. Believe me when I say it did them NO harm.

Yea, tough to destroy. I've ripped them off rock leaving only a little blob of goo. They came back..... don't worry about them, they should be fine.
