Brown spot on toadstool getting bigger

Klyle · Feb 10, 2026

I’ve had this toadstool for about four months. When I got it from LFS it had the spot on it, but it was much smaller. It seems to be getting bigger, toadstool seems to be leaning over more and hasn’t opened for at least two weeks. It seems to be getting progressively worse. I’m picking up some iodine to do a dip tonight. Is there anything else I could do to save it? I know you can cut some leathers, but I don’t know about this one especially at the base…I’ve only recently switched over to keeping only soft corals so I don’t have a ton of experience with leathers. Appreciate any advice

HOW MUCH DOES A FISH’S FEEDING REQUIREMENTS AFFECT YOUR STOCKING DECISIONS?

A lot! - I avoid fish that require frequent or specialized feeding

Quite a bit, but an automatic feeder can change my answer

It depends on whether my nutrient export can handle it

It depends on how badly I want the fish

Not much. I’m willing to adjust my routine

Not at all. Feeding demands don’t limit my stocking choices

I usually learn about the demanding feeding schedule after buying the fish!

I haven’t really considered this before

Something else (see my comments in the thread)
