#ToadstoolLeather Difficulty Level: #Leathercorals are some of the best #beginnercorals available. They are usually very tolerant to most conditions, cheap and easily found. Feeding: Most of these #corals have very well adapted feeder tentacles that can capture small particles. Many also have the ability to absorb nutrients directly from the water. Lighting (Level 2 to 8): Leather corals can be adapted to almost any lighting though faster growth will be seen under higher lighting conditions. Water flow: They will also adapt to almost any flow conditions, but moderate to high flow is best to keep the surface clean. Placement: Leathers have strong toxins that can be deadly to stony corals. It’s best to keep them in separate tanks, but keeping leathers downstream from stony coral may also be possible. Be sure to keep adequate amounts of carbon in the system when keeping both. General: Leathers are great beginner corals and should do well in most #aquariums. When adding them to a new tank, leathers may shut down for a period and not open their polyps. Be patient and they will usually return. They may also exhibit this behavior when growing https://captivecoral.net/portfolio/leather-coral/ #softcoral #easycoral #reefcentral #coralreef #oceanlife #reeftank #elitereef #marinelife https://www.instagram.com/p/Bql2pAzn_fG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1dauwq0zebju8

The combination of all things good including color, motion, durability, growth rate, value and ease of propogation into one #coral makes the green #toadstoolleather one of the best staple corals out there. #elitereef #softcoral #beginnercoral #favoritecorals #bestcorals https://www.instagram.com/p/Bprx9oUHPwP/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=a87yv4hy640s

I'm rebooting the wee #saltwater #aquarium. I moved this #toadstoolleather from Phoenix about four years ago #slomo
