    Is this a trick question? I don't think you can.

    Take your rocks out one at a time and scrape them off.

    sorry to be off topic but I couldn't help but notice you had 3 firefish gobies together and they all seem to get along just fine. Have you ever had any troubles with them? How long have you had them together and did you introduce them at the same time?

    And as for the mushrooms, I wouldn't kill them, I would frag them and sell/trade them.
