hello, i bought a toadstool leather about 3 days ago from WWC and it still hasn't open so can someone tell me if it is just getting used to the tank or is it going to shed? i do not does my tank because it is a soft coral only tank but i did test ,my nitrate and phosphate but i do not have any test kits for the rest or the elements. and is it normal for toadstool leather to shed when added to a new tank?
nitrate 15 ppm
phosphate .1 ppm
sorry i do not have any pictures...
 
How did you acclimate it? Sounds like it's in shock resulting in polyp bailout.
 
Mine shed and only opened a week after adding. I'd monitor it for a few more days
 
toadstool leathers can be major drama queens! I've had my green toadstool closed for months because some xenia were touching it. I pulled them off last week and it starting opening up again....
I need to look for that I’ve had a fiji yellow looking great and healthy but never putting out it’s polyps for months... weird
