I received this CB Maleficent frag from TSA today and it looks pretty stressed. It looks like it’s partially bleached to me.

Any acclimation tips for stressed acros like this one?

Keep it in a bit lower light for a bit (100-200 par) and make sure it’s getting really good flow. Not much else you can do, but it doesn’t look terrible to me.
