Bumps on toadstool

[seth16]

I added a green toadstool into my tank yesterday looking, since it wasn't attached to a rock or frag plate I wedged its stalk in a hole in the rock, it had fallen onto the substrate a few times before I made an adjustment and after the last time I recovered it from the sand I noticed it had little white and tan bumps on it that aren't its polyps. Does anyone know what going on with it?

Not quite sure maybe a pest was eating it up....that's a lot of gha

Ya anything I put in there to eat it doesn't completely scrape it up and always leaves a film that regrows, I've just had my water parameters tested at my lfs and everything was good. I just want to make sure that the toadstool isn't going to die.

You should get a sea hare or a tang for the gha...check on it at night when the lights are off too see if anything is on it..... toadstools are real tuff corals not easy to die/kill so im sure itll live

I've been waiting for my lfs to get in a sea hair, the only problem is my tank is only 30g so I don't think a tang would be happy unless it was a baby and I sold him or gave it back to the fish store when he gets too big. The toadstool was completely fine when I added it but had fallen over top down onto the substrate a few times and after picking it up the last time is when the bumps developed and now he looks like he was bitten by a swarm of mosquitoes.
