Default Something Nibbling on my ToadStool

Hi everyone,

I have been trying to figure this out. Please take a look at the photo and let me know what you think.. It looks like something is nibbling on it but I cannot find anything that could be doing it.



Thanks

Chad

Sorry Chad, don't know but...

Saw the title of your thread and haven't stopped smiling. Just struck me as funny...



(what kind of crabs do you have in there, BTW?)

Hehe, Ya, I can see what you mean

Just some blue legged hermits, and I know there is one or two hitchhikers in there that have eluded capture so far. But they never stray far from their little holes in the rocks and seem to just scrap off algae.

Ya, that would be a bit frightening depending on what it is of course. So far the crabs seem harmless.. We will see. However, just to note that these "nibble" marks also appear on the top.

I have heard that micro bubbles can cause problems.. Could this be the possible cause?

I have two types of Todstools, one like yours, and the other one that looks like a toadstool. They ALWAYS look like that, and have never shown any ill effects. The toadstool one has been fragged three times, and I have had it for several years. Never a problem.

Nope, that Toadie came from me. I've Fragged mine a couple of times and have never seen that on the stalk. Mine is quite large and the stalk is somewhat flawless .
