Could be its shedding its skin as it grows. That would be my guess, my Toadstool did the same thing looks like its going to die for weeks, but now looks healthy and grew in size.

+1

my leather would take on more of a greenish hugh every once and a while ( you could see dark green sections under antics ) mine will also decide to take a nap now and then and bend at the middle? It has no rhyme nor reason to be doing that but it always comes back in better and sometimes a little larger/different shape.

Well, some time later and my leather is still around. It never really came back to its original state. Its tenticles dont fully extend like before. They were amazing...

my tank parameters tonight are: SG= 1.025, pH= 8.2, Alk= 8 dkh, Ca= 400 ppm and nitrates < 10 ppm.

Dont know why....
