Most the members of the sarcophytum genus like quite a bit of flow, direct some good gentle flow too it.

When I bought my toadstool from a LFS, it took about 5 or 6 days to open.

a little distant in the pic but it looks fine to me. Hows the flow on the bed and what kind of lighting do you have?

Is it attached to anything or just sitting in the sand. Can't tell by the pic.

 

[Red_Fisher23]

its currently just in the sand, why is that a bad thing?

Typically they are attached to live rock.
