![]() Wondering if anyone could please help me ID this toadstool please. I bought it as a 1” frag and it has now grown to approx 7”. I initially was told by the vendor it was a rare Japanese neon toadstool but am wondering if perhaps it is instead a Tyree after searching the internet.
Thinking to sell it either whole or maybe in frags as while I love it, I am having trouble keeping clams with it and wonder if the odd SPS has reacted to it as well? Picture to follow, sorry |

![]() My guess is Tyree.
From the pictures I've seen, the Japanese ones have long tentacles. That picture looks a lot closer to my Tyree. |

![]() That’s what I’ve been thinking, thank you for your input.
I’m looking to move it from my DT as I think it may be responsible for my having a hard time with clams and some sps... |

![]() First off. I hate the name game.
Its a nice green polyp toadstool! If a specific name is going to be put on it, like Tyree, it should be of that exact lineage from him. That's not to say there aren't "generic" toadstools that will look exactly the same. I have heard of a long tentacle Japanese toadstool. But again, that's not to say there isn't a short tentacle Japanese toadstool. FWIW, from the pic it looks very similar to the Tyree toadstools I keep, except mine seems to stay a bit smaller. I too got a frag of what was sold to me as a Japanese toadstool. When it grew out, it looked identical to my Tyree. So hope that clears the mud! Lol

If you like it, but think it may be causing issues with the other corals... You can try more frequent water changes, running carbon, ozone...etc. softies like that generally pose issues from chemical warfare. So you just need to be able to curb that.

![]() One more thing, I believe there are 2 well known Japanese varieties.
The green long tentacle And A green tentacle with green cap as well. (Where as the Tyree is green tentacle, but NO green cap)
