From start to finish, the complete process of the Toadstool Mushroom Leather Coral shedding its "old skin" transpired over about a seven day period.
This picture shows the coral in its full splendor after shedding. Once again using the Tridacna crocea Clam in the photo as a size gauge, and comparing it with the first photo shown, you can see the end result. The coral is larger and even more magnificent than before.
