    Is this a problem?

    The pictures speak for it all....my leather isn't looking too good. I think it may be because the Discosoma's are up against it. Is this something that others have experienced as a problem or should I start looking at other factors?
    Up until a few days ago all was well they lived in harmony. Then again this may be one of those times when leathers shrink up to shed their skin. I don't know.

    My leathers are in the same situation. They would shrink up for a few days and then snap out of it! I think they do this to shed it outer skin.

    I've read all about it but just haven't ever seen it in person or know how strong a Discosoma sp. sting would be compared to a leather so I thought I'd ask. I would think a Mushroom would be a little more powerful being so closely related to an anemone...I was thinking this might be the problem.
    I've had it for 2 months or so and never had it look like this.
