    My LFS gave me two small mushroom coral that weren't attached to anything. I put them in my Biocube and they float all over the place. What can I do to get them to attach to my live rock?

    Bridal veil and a rubberband. Trap the coral to a rock with the mesh for a few days to a week.

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Take a small container, put some rubble in the bottom and put the mushrooms in and place in an area of very low flow. Some have also used fishing line or equivalent to tie them to a piece of rubble.
