Hello everyone,

Lately i've been looking for a mushroom/leather coral to be added to my collection.

However, i'm not familiar with their types nor their variaties and so 100% of our LFS's.

I have seen those two below in one of the LFS here and was wondering if those are good and/or if those are actually what i'm looking for!

Am trying to find the ones that have white polyps extending (medium) when happy/settled, do you think those two below are the same to what am looking for, or are they an "avoid". (They're different type, but i have never seen them with polyps out, hence my concern).

PS: sorry for low quality photos, the LFS toom them for me.

Thanks in advance.

Toadstool and finger leathers, both pictures.

Second picture, finger looks stressed/bleached.

None of the them will have "white polyps.

The tan toadstools may develop a pink color given the right environment to grow in.

Here's mine in my current system:

Thank for your prompt response!

That's exactly what am looking for. In your pictures you can see the polyps out, while the one's at LFS have only needle like polyps without the "heads" if you will...

So i'm wondering if those will extend their polyps out like yours given a good home? I was thinking that only some species do have those polyps while others only come with tiny little polyps unlike the one you have?

Thank you again, great looking toadstool!
 
Thanks! I may try that one actually..



I wish they have it, where do you think i can have it here? ;Pompus
Sorry, Just looked up your location. I'm only familiar with sellers in the US.

If I remember right, to bring in plants from outside of the US then I needed to spend $50 on a phytosanitary Certificate.
Basically it states that there are no bugs or harmful pass on the plant when it is imported.

You would have to contact the seller and find out what permits you need to bring it into your country.
