Bought a green toadstool leather off someone tearing down a tank last Saturday. Guy didn’t want to remove it from the sizable rock it was on. Being I was on a time crunch the leather and rock were placed down on the sand bed for the night until I could rescape the tank using the new rock.

First night and then day up until the rescape the green polyps were very prevalent but since the rescape which moved the toadstool about 6 inches closer to light I haven’t seen a single polyp and it has just looked like the attached picture.

I know toadstools like moderate flow and it is definitely getting that as I adjust the flow two days ago to amp it up a bit but no change.

Should I be waiting this out or looking to move the leather further from light again?
