Toadstool leather not opening

[lazypinoy]

i belive that's normal. when u purchased the coral from the lfs what kind of lighting was it under? and what is urs? i bought 2 neon green leathers from the very top of the tank in my lfs that used MH's. then i put em in my tank of vhos. they didnt fully open for about 2 weeks but day by day little heads started popping out so i guess urs is ok.

The toadstool was purchased last saturday. It was under pcs at the lfs and I have them under pcs in my tank. I was told that it was aquacultured locally in a pc tank, so I do not believe that lighting is the issue. I will just give it some more time. Thanks everyone.

Well, my toadstool finally shed today. It was still closed up, but I finally noticed some peeling on the top and when I tried the turkey baster trick I got a layer of shedding off. Hopefully this is a good sign and it will begin to send out its polyps soon.

My toadstool is finally opening a little bit. I also finally got the camera working so I can post a pic. Here goes. Once again, thanks for all the help.
