I have heard that these corals can be quite toxic. Should I yank my toadstool or not. Lol I just reread that, Hilarious, I'm not changing it so there.

Personally, I'd say yank the toadstool. There, I said it.

On the other hand if you're running carbon you should probably be okay, how big is it?

mine shed about every 2 or 3 weeks. good flow and a skimmer is the best way to go. my skimmer is also set to pull out wet skimmate

Its not that big and personally I'm not that in love with it. I'm not running carbon either, so I may just sell it.

I run a completely filterless system with leathers and have never had an issue with any of my other more sensitive corals. leave it imo.
