Where to get a weeping willow leather?

HandofThanatos · Aug 23, 2020

I am looking to make my tank more of a softie tank, and I want a really nice leather as a centerpiece.

Ideally I would like a weeping willow leather, but I would also appreciate any other cool leather suggestions!

If you happen to know where to get a Weeping Willow, I am only able to find one online, and I am not sure how reputable it is, please let me know here.

Thanks in advance for your help

hi,that would be in the colt coral family,where are you located,poss someone will clip off a piece for you,they are fast growers

Colt coral, green nepthea, all of the toadstools, yellow Fiji/Tonga leather, and cabbage leathers can never do you wrong! Just picked up a green nepthea today, it’s stunning!

I am in the Orlando, FL area.

By both WWC and Top Shelf Aquatics, but neither really gets high end leathers, or at least not ones I think look good

I think AquaSD gets them now and then too. The weeping toadstools.

AquaCorals usually has them. Also a lot of other softies as that’s what they specialize in.

I would look at Marine Farmers or Cultivated Reef.

I picked one up from Pacific East Aquaculture. Just shoot them a message and ask for a weeping willow or if they have in stock.

I highly recommend AquaSD, MarineFarmers or Legendary Corals

The leathers in aquaSD are not high end leathers

AquaSD does not have that much softies and high end leather neither.

Depends on the day. Just gotta wait for them to be in stock. Got a really good deal on a neon green weeping willow a few weeks ago but they sold out quick.

Aqua corals is the best spot. Penny is awesome! You’re getting the real thing also. I’ve had mine for about a year now. Very healthy and attached to a rock. She had pics of the the ones she frags off of.

I looked forever for one. She sells genuine weeping leathers, not the knock offs.

Thanks for this, might pull the trigger, wish shipping wasnt more than the coral though!

Her shipping is higher than I remember right but your getting the real thing. I called her and we ended up talking for over a hour. She’s very passionate about what she does
