Great topic for a thread. My sarco is one of the favorites in the tank. This is mine, had it around 2.5 years. It's in a 24" wide tank, so it's right around 17" when fully expanded.
Close up of the 2" long polyps Full side image Baby green that I hope grows up soon |

I can't see the last picture of your baby green but I can see it in the first. Nice.

you'd also need to see more of the actual physical structure of this specific specimen (with the polyps retracted) to get a closer/more accurate ID. the long-polyps and photo angle hide too much of the coral. i can say a couple species it definitely ain't but as to which one it might be, the list would be too long. there's around 35~60 species of sarcophyton, depending on which biologist you prefer. but besides the ID'ing though, i'd doubt you could accurately/consistently obtain one species over another, other than some obvious ones that differ from one another, e.g. s. elegans (bright yellow) versus a s. trocheliphorum (long-polyped brownish).

I could supply you with a frag, but this is a tough time of year for shipping.

I won't be able to get one now, my new tank isn't set up yet. I seriously about died when you said that. Ummmmm If the offer is still available a little later, i should i have my tank set up around Jan/Feb. It might be a little cold then but we'll see.
Thanx, -Chris-

Would a leather be able to be in an SPS dominated tank? I've heard about them fighting with chemicals.

There will be some chemical competition. I had stonies in a softy dominated tank with no obvious problems. Activated carbon use should quiet the battle.

Here's a pic of my old Toadstool. It was getting too big, I donated it to a Zooqi at REEFNEST for his schools. It was about 14 inches across before I got rid of it.

that's a gorgeous specimen, jonk! very nice! just curious, do you remember if it was very slimey or dry-ish (leathery) to the touch?
dresch, i think that's a s. glaucum. it's not too unusual for it to stay closed up most of the time ime. not sure if that's a great sign though as i've had off/on luck with it in the past but it looks good to me in that pic!
