Leather Rock Mushroom (Fungiidae Coral) (Green Rhodactis sp.)

(Also known as Green Leather Mushroom Coral, Elephant Ear Mushroom Coral, or Textured Rock Mushroom Coral)

Overview

The Green Leather Rock Mushroom (Rhodactis sp.) is a hardy and visually captivating soft coral (Corallimorpharian) prized for its thick, leathery texture and vibrant green hues. The large, fleshy oral disc features a velvety or finely wrinkled surface with short, stubby tentacles that give it a soft, tactile appearance. Colours range from bright neon green to deep emerald, often accented with metallic or iridescent tones under blue-spectrum lighting. Known for its durability and adaptability, this coral makes an excellent addition to both beginner and advanced reef systems, particularly in shaded or lower-light areas where stony corals may struggle.

Origin

Native to the Indo-Pacific region, including the Great Barrier Reef, Coral Sea, Fiji, Tonga, Indonesia, and the Solomon Islands. Typically found in lagoon slopes and sheltered reef zones, attached to hard rock or coral rubble where light and flow are moderate to low.

Feeding

The Leather Rock Mushroom Coral is photosynthetic, hosting zooxanthellae that supply most of its energy. Supplemental feeding encourages faster growth, brighter colouration, and propagation. Feed 1–2 times per week with:

  • Mysis or enriched brine shrimp
  • Finely chopped seafood (shrimp, clam, or fish)
  • Marine snow or fine coral food powders

Target feeding is beneficial but not essential, as this coral can absorb dissolved nutrients effectively from the water column.

Lighting

Low to moderate lighting.Rhodactis corals prefer diffused, gentle illumination and may fade under excessive light.

  • PAR range: 50–150 ¬µmol/m¬≤/s
  • Ideal placement in shaded rockwork or on the lower levels of the aquarium.
  • Blue or actinic lighting enhances its natural fluorescent green tones.
Water Flow

Low to moderate, indirect flow. Gentle, variable currents help promote full expansion while preventing debris buildup. Strong, direct flow can cause retraction or detachment.

Placement
  • Place on lower rockwork or sandy substrate, away from aggressive stinging corals.
  • Allow 5–10 cm (2–4 inches) of space between colonies to prevent competition.
  • The coral attaches easily to rock and can spread over time through budding or tissue division.
  • Excellent for shaded aquascape zones or as a focal coral in low-light reef areas.
Tank Mates

Reef safe. Compatible with:

  • Peaceful reef fish (wrasses, gobies, tangs, blennies, clownfish, etc.)
  • Invertebrates such as snails, shrimp, and hermit crabs
  • Other soft corals and non-aggressive LPS species

Avoid:

  • Aggressive stinging corals (e.g., Euphyllia, Galaxea, Hydnophora)
  • Large angelfish or butterflyfish that may nip at soft tissue
Aggression

Moderate.Rhodactis corals can release mild toxins (allelopathy) and may overgrow slower species. Maintain good spacing to prevent contact or competition.

Experience Level

Beginner. The Green Leather Rock Mushroom Coral is exceptionally hardy and tolerant of a wide range of conditions, making it an ideal species for novice reef keepers and a reliable, low-maintenance choice for advanced systems.

Water Parameters
  • Temperature: 24–27°C (75–81°F)
  • pH: 8.1–8.4
  • Salinity: 1.024–1.026 SG
  • Alkalinity (dKH): 8–12
  • Calcium: 380–450 ppm
  • Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
  • Nitrate: <10 ppm (tolerant up to 15 ppm)
  • Phosphate: <0.05 ppm
  • Tank Size: Minimum 50 litres (13 gallons); suitable for nano reefs or larger mixed coral systems

Stable parameters and moderate nutrients help maintain vibrant coloration and healthy tissue growth.

Reef Compatibility

Fully reef safe. The Green Leather Rock Mushroom Coral is a durable, easy-care soft coral that thrives in shaded or low-light zones. Its thick, leathery texture and vivid green tones make it an excellent filler coral, providing both colour and movement to any reefscape.




Interesting Fact

Rhodactis corals can inflate or flatten their bodies to control light exposure and feeding surface area — a unique behaviour that helps them adapt to changing water flow and lighting conditions.

Cute, comfortable waterproof boots (a little snug to put on)
Size: 7, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
These are really cute Chelsea-style boots and feel very comfortable once they’re on. The waterproof material is great for wet weather and the sole feels sturdy with good traction. They look stylish enough to wear casually but still feel practical for rainy days. The only downside is they can be a little difficult to put on at first because the opening is somewhat snug, but once they’re on they fit well and feel supportive. Overall they’re a great waterproof boot and I’ve enjoyed wearing them.

Surprisingly great for my wide feet and high instep!
Size: 10.5, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
So thrilled I took a chance on these. Finding boots is impossible for me. I have wide feet, a super high instep, a bunion on one foot, and I wear a hard to find size (10.5). I ordered the 10.5 and 11 in these expecting I might need to size up for width (if I could even get them on). It was a struggle getting the 10.5s on the first time, and once I did they were somewhat uncomfortable on the top of my left foot. But I read that they would relax so decided to give it a go because I need waterproof boots for an upcoming trip and the 11s felt too long. After two days of light wear, they are already breaking in and I have no more discomfort. Getting them on is already easier and they are plenty wide enough and very comfortable to walk in. These are true to size. Super happy and worth a day of mild discomfort to break them in!

Comfortable, sturdy, waterproof
Size: 9.5, Color: Black/Black
Loce, love, love these boots. Have walked ten miles with no foot pain around NYC. They go with everything and and are so comfortable. As they are waterproof/resistant, they get a little warm in high temps, but perfect three-season boots.

Super cute, comfortable, practical, love that they are slip on
Size: 10.5, Color: Tobacco/Black
I have worn these 2-3 times already. The first day was a school/work day so I was on my feet 9 hours and the only issue I had was with the side of the boot rubbing against my ankle. I just make sure I wear socks high enough to cover my ankles or jeans that go into the boots now for long wear days. Absolutely love them! They keep my feet dry in this snow( we live in Michigan). I had been looking for a pair like this for awhile now and was getting super frustrated that I couldn't find my size in any that I liked. I saw that they had these available in a 10.5 and I wear 11. I looked at the Sorel website reviews (since the amazon ones weren't super helpful on sizing) and they said that the boots ran big so I took a chance on the 10.5 fitting me. They fit perfect. I have long narrow feet but I could see where they would be tight or uncomfortable on someone with wider feet. I've been trying to find a pair for my mom now since she has boot envy.
