Toadstool Leather coral

does anyone keep a Toadstool Leather coral in a 12g nano cube? how does it adjust to this size tank? tips?

Leathers are usually not a good choice for nano tanks as they emit some pretty nasty alleopathic chemicals if stressed and they can get very big quite quickly. If you want to try, I would suggest that you run carbon or something equivalent.

I had this 24G nano for over a year with 12 leathers in it. I never had any problems even when the leathers grew big enough to touch each other. I did run carbon. The one thing is, that they grow so fast that they outgrew the little tank within a year.
