Forgot to ask...Where you have it mounted. Do you have lots of flow,medium or low? I am asking cause I am getting a monster like that this week.

So fill me in, I still haven't figure it out.

There is quite a bit of flow on him. I have a Tunze stream 1600gph on the opposite side of the tank 5ft away facing him, and another sream 6000 (650-1800gph) above him...it creates alot of polyp movement and sway, I find it likes the flow, but you will be able to tell if there is too much flow by the expansion of the tips of the polyps-they stay small. My toadstool forms a cup in the middle, If my flow is too low I get a build up of whatever they shed!

Go to the first post in the pictures category and it explains it step by step...The IMG portion I just type in...good luck

I bought the leather off of someone who was getting out of the addiction! I have had the toadstool for approx. 15 months and it has easily tripled in size! I though I better leave an area for him 2ftx2ft....time will tell if thats enough space! He hovers on an average of 14 inches diameter...he has reached close to 19 inches D at times!
