Nice Some sort of toadstool i'm guessing?

i've got a bunch of leathers, but only a good pic of one (the one my clowns are hosted by). So here's a pic of my regular toadstool. I've also got devils hand, green toadstool, yellow Fiji leather, and a gold somethingrather toadstool with super long tentacles.

here's the oldest pic of my toadstool i can find.


Heres' one from a couple months ago i believe...You can see the green toadstool right next to it, but its all closed up (and is more pink at the moment ). My regular one was abut the size of the green one in that pic when i got it..that was less than a year ago.


well here's a pic of about a week ago after i had rearranged everything in the tank...so its very cloudy and also everything is closed up. But in this pic you can see my yellow fiji (really closed up tight) my toadstool (about half open) and my green toadstool (top right and all the way open)

thanks Looks better now tho since everything has been given time to settle in and got used to the light schedule change (was running during day, now running during night since i'm not home during day) And there was also a lot of red cotton alga out in the open but i've pulled all that out. I also scraped every bit of the glass so there's none of those ugly coraline spots you see on the back and side glass in the pics above. It looks like a new tank again lol.

edsimmons...thats crazy. That coral looks so real it looks like it woul dhave to be fake lol. And it figures that its in japan! And thanks for the link on those hydor things. They're pretty dang low wattage, yesno? I mean the 600gph one was only 4.5w? I'm thinking thats very low since my seio 620 was way higher i think. Arent those closer to 40 or am i just dreaming?

Art-- They got that picture at a Red Robin restaurant near me lol. Every time i go there that picture freakin stares at me, i swear lol. Its like its alive and everywhere i move it turns its eyes....creepy..

I have 2 and neither one of them are anything really special in my opinion besides being fairly large. The first one is about 20"-22" diameter and the second one I'd say is about 12" diameter.
