Sps and Toadstool Leather

[SuperDragon]

I spoke with a buddy lately that told me sps and leathers don't play well. Anybody have any experience?

I have a toadstool and mostly SPS in my system. Never any issues.

No issue at all unless they are too close and stinging each other. Just give the softies a space for expansion and you should be fine. GAC will helps on chemical wars but maybe it just a myth. I do have small bags of charcoal by the way.

I think the general perception is that some soft corals (possibly toadstool) produce toxins that inhibit growth in other corals.
Sps might grow less, but I also read that activated carbon is a good way to filter the toxins out.
But I'm not a scientist, so this might be totally unscientific.

Yup pretty much, not a scientist either.

Even though I feel like a scientist with all my test kits and additives:)
