    Nice BIG toadstool there.
    Dwarfs your corals and I think is even bigger than your clam.
    Congrats!

    nice football size toadstool! just make sure you change out your carbon every month due to sps dont like the chemicals those toadstool give off sometimes.

    Nice toadstool! Night-rida is correct. I have 3 different types of 'stools in my 46 and the other corals, especially the sps remind me if I forget to change my carbon weekly.

    Hey puffer chick I have a toadstoll now for a year and a half in my 210 and I'm ready to give it to someone. It started out about the size of a tennis ball and now it's the size of a basketball. I have orange mushrooms that have been completely covered by it. I also have an epidemic of colt corals everywhere in my tank. I'm thinking of breaking the whole reef down and cleaning up the overkill. I don't mean to rain on your parade but I've seen a toadstoll that was over a foot high and a foot and half wide. If your going to keep it position it accordingly. These are pictures in chronological order over a period of 15 months in the last picture you can see all the colt coral on the left side.

    deffiently i only have a small filter of carbon running, i will be getting a bigger filter hopefully tomorrow so the carbon can be more effective
    wow thats a lot of toadstool! i will be sure to change the carbon frequently :D

    oh damn! thats huge!!! im trying my best to keep it isolated so that it doesnt affect the other corals, didnt know they got THAT bit lol. and wow that is a big difference of growth!
