| Fast Facts |
Umbrella or "Toadstool" Leathers from Fiji have a somewhat more golden, and generally nicer appearance than their more common Indonesian counterparts. Shown is a huge underwater colony, smaller specimens are not as "extremely undulated" as this monster piece, but larger pieces lean more in that direction than o small ones pieces. At any rate, Fiji Leathers are consistently the nicest available umbrella leathers available. A hardy coral that prefers bright lighting and strong water movement. Larger colonies (shown) have more "ruffled", undulated shapes and are slightly more demanding than smaller pieces.
NOTE: These corals can expand or contract tremendously over time, depending on aquarium conditions. What appears small initially may be much larger once acclimated to ideal conditions for a period of weeks or months.
