Got a green toadstool leather coral for about 4 months that's about 4 inches tall. Everytime I placed it upright, it will slowly bend its head downwards within 24 hrs. I'd leave it in place for few weeks, but it's head will still be facing the sand. Then, I'd turn it around to face up again, but after 24 hrs, it will face the sand again. Sigh.
Seems like the head is too heavy, or the foot is too soft.
Also, its polyps rarely open up ... only seen it open up few times these few months!!
I placed it under strong light and weak light. Same ... except that in stronger light, it looks greener. Lower light, looks brown.
I placed it under strong and weak flow. Same.
Inspected it ... no sores, cuts, melting, or any other problems. Water condition is OK ... It's kept in a 80% SPS tank, with 4 other leathers, with mushrooms, etc. Everything is GREAT, except this poor guy.
Any ideas??
