What is the best way to frag mushrooms?

So I picked up this beauty from Frank a while back. (S)he is reproducing and I would like to spread the babies around. What is the best way to get them free of the rock? Or am I getting a chisel and breaking the rock apart ? Looks like 4 or 5 littleuns.

Handheld metal bone cutters may work if you can’t take the rock out of the tank and can find some shrooms on a ridge that you can snip off (at rock below shroom). This method needs thin or porous rock you can cut through - won’t work if the shroom is recessed into the rock which a couple of those may be.

As said above, dremels and chisels also work if you can remove the rock from water and don’t mind potentially destroying it.
 
So you can’t get them off with ice like nems? I have one that’s poorly placed in the shade and stretches for light like 1.5” tall. I was hoping to ice his foot to encourage him to let go or move
