Definitely shot when no flow was on. Color was enhanced in that photo too. Still a nice specimen though. I would buy it.

Picture without flow:

I have a very long tentacle green one, but it is still very small. I also have a larger white one that was called weeping, it has very, very long tentacles. I like both. :)

Where is everyone getting their willows? I don't care if it's a true weeping one. I'm looking for one with long tentacles and that yellowish greenish color.

My three are doing great. I have one green, one white (not pictured) and one closer to pale purple. Here are the pictures from quite a bit ago.

Is it only the true weeping willows that have those extremely long tentacles or do all the ones labelled as “Weeping Willow Toadstool” have the extremely long tentacles?

Love seeing all this! Huge toadstool fan here and have several supposed "willow" frags in my possession. In my opinion most if not 97-99% of the toadstools are just really nice long polyp toadstools and not TRUE weeping willows. Reefbuilders had one of the original colonies of the legit willow and its no longer around. I have seen some nice ones on here and always looking for awesome toadstools to add to my collection!

Just wanna make sure everyone doesn't get caught up in the name game with these corals because legitimately most are just LONG POLYP TOADSTOOLS

Agreed.

Reefbuilders is not the only one with a willow though. They are popular in Asia. I believe they call them African white polyp toadstools there.

For example:
