Mushroom Basket – Coral Propagation & Grow-Out Basket
Give your mushroom corals a safe place to settle and attach with our 3D printed Mushroom Basket. Designed for coral propagation and grow-out, this handy accessory helps keep loose mushroom corals contained while they establish themselves on frag plugs, rubble or small pieces of rock.
Mushroom corals can be surprisingly mobile, especially after fragging or when they've detached from their original rock. Rather than chasing them around your aquarium, a propagation basket provides a dedicated area where they can settle without being carried away by the flow.
Why We Like It
Anyone who's propagated mushrooms knows how frustrating it can be when a freshly cut mushroom disappears behind the rockwork. They're not always keen to stay where you put them! A mushroom basket makes propagation much easier by keeping loose corals together while allowing water to circulate around them.

Good to Know
Mushroom corals generally prefer gentle to moderate flow, particularly while recovering from fragging. Avoid placing the basket directly in strong water movement that could disturb the corals before they've attached.
