Toadstool leathers and terpenes

[Zoa_Fanatic]

Do toadstool leather corals release the chemicals that slow growth of other corals? I have one in my biocube that is not very large that I like pretty well but if it harms other corals ill get rid of it.

I've had toadstools and other leathers for years that have had zero effect on my other corals, FWIW.

Depends on the leather. I have some that have wiped out certain lps and some that do not bother anything. They can slime and send toxins, but most corals can. Toadstools are not really known to be hurtful to other corals. At least none that I have had. I have had toadstools with lps and sps no issues.
