Quation about green Jap. Toadstoal...

[1DeR9_3Hy]

...are they as hardy as the other toadstoals?

I am refearing to the jap toadstoal that is usually $50 for a piece the size of a quater. Someone local has one for sale and i would love to get it....but i am concerned about its hardiness. I always thought Japan was quite a bit cooler than the normal waters our corals are collected from, does this pose a problem for this leather?

To answer my own question, yes...if not more

great!! how big was it when you got it and how big is it now?

It has grown very little, its about 4" round and 4" tall. It was maybe a little smaller...about 1/2" round smaller? It has been on the bottom of my tank though, not mounted so it blows around with the current and it has also gone a week or two at times with no light (behind my rocks). It has also fallen on my blasto numerous times, brushed up against the hammer (stung it, but it sloughed off a layer of skin and kept on extending its polyps 2 days later...).

If my clowns would leave it alone it would stay where i put it, but they are constantly trying to host it.
