[jmpowie]

I bought this coral last night or I got this coral for free, I bought the polyps and because the coral did not match a pic on the outside of the tank the polyps did she sold it to me for 26.00. I love people who work in petstores that dont know fish. thanks

toadstool leather, prefers high light (will grow just fine in less) likes moderate to higher flow to aid in shedding. very hardy.

Yes...most Toadstool type leathers are in the Genus Sarcophyton. there are several different species...most are generally hardy when in a good enviroment, some can be iffy...the yellow Fiji is an iffy one for many ppl.
Hard to say but I think yours is Sarcophyton tenuispiculatum, the Gold Crown...a very tough and hardy species...hard to kill. Good luck with it
