This favia coral seems to be growing some kind of fuzz almost whiteish at the top of the coral. Whats wrong with it?

Sometimes they have an almost white-ish sheen to them which I believe is the refraction of light through/off their slime coat, but sometimes they also produce more slime if they are stressed which can look a little odd as well.

The polyps look "plump" and sorta okay though, kinda hard to tell from the pic. Are any other corals in the tank showing any signs of stress or have you made any changes to the tank recently?

No everything else is perfectly fine. This coral got added around 2 weeks ago so may just be adjusting
