you mean a shroom? if so then yes, just cut it at the base and put it in a low flow area with some lr rubble and it will attach. and on the + side the little bit of shroom left on the rock where you cut will grow into a new shroom.

Keep in mind that the shroom might blow away in the current and end up behind some rock never to be found again. I would suggest a small container that allows some flow and covering it with a mesh of some sort. Not enough to block the light and flow however. Or, put it on some LR rubble and cover it with the mesh.

My one ricordia polyp gets blown around alot. I also lost one because it slipped into a rock crevice. I've also had shrooms come loose from one spot and leave a little bit behind that grows into a mushroom.

just get a flat head and hammer then you can get a chunk of the rock with it too.
