toadstool leather

Do toadstool leather corals release the chemicals that slow growth of other corals? I have one in my biocube that is not very large that I like pretty well but if it harms other corals ill get rid of it.

When I woke up my toadstool had been weirdly closed for some time now, yesterday it was perfect now it look kinda bad, but I could be totally wrong and it’s just doing what it’s supposed to do naturally, I took tests of everything I have yesterday but I could take new ones if needed Alk:9.3...

Hello everyone, I am in need of some suggestions on how to remove a giant 14”-16” head toadstool that has taken over my tank. It is shading out all of my other corals, and it is time to go so I can move on with my reef in a new direction. It has attached most of its body to the rock work, and I...

Hey reefers. I am getting a tiny frag of green toadstool leather Thursday. How do I care for this coral? Will it be harmful to my Zoa, candy canes, blasto, or hammer coral? Am I supposed to run carbon? Sorry about all the questions new to leathers in general.

Hey guys. My wife bought me this coral for Christmas. I think it’s a white toadstool leather but I don’t know. She paid 25$ for it. I feel like it was a decent deal. Someone please help me I’d this thing and let me know is she did good! Thanks! Edit: It’s like solid ghost white. I don’t think...

Trying to find some higher end leathers, maybe a pink tip weeping willow, Fiji yellow toadstool, pink nephthea, etc. Also interested in any rock flower anemones to add to my garden. Shoot me a message and let me know what you have!

Hi! I’ve had this toadstool leather for maybe six months now.. it started out tall and upright but over the past couple month it’s super slumped over and not opening. It looks like his base is starting to shrivel too, it used to stick perfectly in the hole. I’ve tried moving him and nothings...
