Hm, funny you should bring this up. I have a toadstool leather as well, and about one week ago I noticed that a nice bite (the shape of a semi-circle) was taken out of it. The coral was still opening and doing what it normally does. It's been a week and the coral has almost fully healed back up.
The fish I have are:
two ocellais, one royal gramma, one bi-color blenny, a firefish, and a sixline wrasse. The only fish we have in common are the royal gramma..I wonder if he did it...
I doubt any of the inverts you have (I have a lot of the same ones as you) took a chunk out of the leather

It would be rare that a fish would want to bite a toad....but you never know. hard to tell from the pic. it looks like it is spliting, which is odd too. How big is it?

sorry not much help.

but it looks fine I wouldn't worry about it too much

about 5" tall & 4" diameter.....its a small one.
The thing is that he is full open every day, it doesnt look sad or something like that.

I would almost be certain you will find that your rabbit fish is the offender!! I had a rabbit fish for 2 years (gold spotted) and all was fine then i caught him eating my mushrooms, zoas,and then taking bites out of my leathers and it looked just like your pic. My leathers never died,just had pieces missing. I took the fish to lfs and now no probs. I have a friend that had the exact same fish and it happened to him too,same corals.
