I guess its based on how much wave they get?I am no expert, but I am pretty sure Sarcophyton toadstool leather corals often are rippled or curled like yours.
Mine is not as rippled and mostly flat. It seems to be doing fine, though the stalk is laying horizontal instead of standing upright, which leaves the head cocked sideways.
A quick Google image search confirms that they can be rippled:
Beautiful toadstoolI think it looks just fine.
Here is my Momma
Baby toadstool from the Momma.
Looks healthy and polyps extended. Not supposed to be flat. Think of it like a scalloped mushroom.
I have no idea. I am new to corals and marine aquariums.I guess its based on how much wave they get?
Thanks, I lucked out on the big toadstool. A local guy was shutting down his tank. I got it for $75. When I first got it it was very tall around 18". Under my lights it shrunk in height and expanded.Beautiful toadstool
That looks more like a devils hand leather.How "wavy" they are depends on species and how much space they feel they have around them. This species/genotype/variety in one of my systems has always been very irregular and "wavy" and is always dropping off pieces.

Yours looks really nice!
Wow its curled like curly fries lol still beautifulHow "wavy" they are depends on species and how much space they feel they have around them. This species/genotype/variety in one of my systems has always been very irregular and "wavy" and is always dropping off pieces.
Wow That is huge!Mine is sometimes flat but then curls up. Here is my monster. Need to get a pic of it by itself. It is a monster. Was much larger--on 2 rocks. I had to do some work to cut it from the bottom rock and re glue it, and the weight was such that it was hard to get it to hold and even to stay balanced and upright until it recovered. One heavy coral! With the new lights and lots of tank tlc, it is coming back nicely. Long wavy tentacles now. One image below it is pretty flat. my clowns host it
wow! now that is a monster coral!Mine 18" across
