It looks nice anyway.

Finally got a picture of mine! It's about 3 inches. It was half an inch when I first got it...super tiny! I feed it a lot and it has grown a lot considering I've only had it for less than a year.

Cool! Do you have a picture of how it looks now?

Leslie, I was looking at that same toadstool.

I have one already but thought about it for a min.
got my 1st order from them a cpl days ago.

I think I have an aussie bright neon polyops but with a pink/tank skin so prob. aussie. i'll post a pic just to keep the thread going and get an confirmation ID.

They look nice but grow incredibly fast. and they release a lot of chemicals when distressed. need heavy filtration to keep them especially in nanos.

Most people who own the Japanese toadstool say they grow extremely slow...

I love it. It is one of my favs, I dont really care about all the "names" as long as it lives and is pretty! Lol

I just picked one of from Zeppelin on RC. It is solid florescent green; very nice piece.

I also picked one up from him a couple of months ago. It is doing great and is solid florescent green.

I remember several years ago there were two different color forms - bright glowing neon green and one that was a mint green. are both still around? would love to get me some as mine died many moons ago.

I believe I have a Japanese toadstool. I'm unsure of how to tell, but I've had this one for 5 months now and it has barely grown at all. Are there other characteristics that tell them apart?

Either way I love this piece and can't wait for it to grow!
