Leather's & Toadstool Help!

[ikon]

yesterday i found some great deals on some softies secondhand. i bought a large toadstool, about 4" tall and 3" diameter, and a colony of about four 3" tall green finger leathers. they looked great in the guy's tank, got them home & acclimated them to my tank. this morning when the lights came on the toadstool wasn't standing upright, just kind of slumping over, and the green finger leathers are all laying down sideways as well. is this normal for a new addition or do you think i will lose them? they are still like this and the lights have been on for 3 hours.

Give them a few days before you start to worry. My leathers seem to go through cycles of being open and lush to being closed up and miserable

Agreed, leather's can be finnicky. The good news, they survive thermonuclear attacks so just leave it be and see how it reacts over the next few days

I found they sulk when first introduced to a new home, but after a week or so they will be fine!
