I have found a turkey baster and boiling RODI water will work most of the time. Not an exact method but cheaper than any other. I started with one mushroom, now I take about a dozen per week to the local LFS and have about 125 in my tank that I have not successfully removed yet.
One thing to note is not to kill so many at a time as it will hurt water quality. It really does suck am working on a new tank and was originally planning to use my current rock. Now most of it is useless and I see mushrooms as equivalent to aptasia.

Once you start aggravating them by trying to cut them out or to paste them to death, they'll reproduce like crazy. I had the same issue and luckily for me I knew someone that would take the 'shrooms for free along with the 2 gorgeous huge lovely pieces of LR that they were growing on. Other option is too remove the LR, take it outside, scrape the area as best as you can and let it dry out. Then recure. A third option is take the LR with 'shrooms to you lfs and get credit. Good luck

Yeah...if you're rocks have other life on them...you are "screwed"
I've never had aptasia...but I make up for it in mushrooms.
