New mushroom but seems to be struggling. Nitrates are 3- phosphate was at 0.10. I’m bringing down the phosphate now. Alk is at a 8. I’m not sure what’s going on with it or if that’s normal? Thx

How long has it been in the tank and how did it look before going in? Phos at .1 is fine. Nitrates are a little low for softies tho.

My Nitrates are actually lower @ 1.9. It came in looking ok but I considered lighting was the issue. I will raise the Nitrates.

Ya nitrates need bumped up, 10-15 . Higher than that is better for softies than lower.

How are other corals in your tank?
How long have you had this mushroom?
What kind of light do you have?
We can't look at a coral and know whats wrong with it. The only real way to figure it out is with process of elimination, and for that we need all the info.
