My candycrush started fading a little about a month ago, it was happily in the same spot as it was in the first picture, which was taken July 28th, after noticing the “bleaching” I moved him to the more shaded side of the shroom box I had him in. The fading got worse and he detached from his base so I moved him to my low light shroom basket in the back where the second picture was taken, today. No major fluctuations I noticed In testing, and all other mushrooms including other jawbreaker are all happy and healthy. Any insight would be greatly appreciated, as I am debating a lougals dip but don’t want to stress him out any more than he already is! Thanks in advance

What's a candy crush? A named mushroom?

Dip it and relocate is what I would do. Where was it kept in sellers tank? What's the PAR in the shroom box?

Yes it’s just a named jawbreaker mushroom, it was purchased at reefapalooza so the vendors parameters are unknown. I don’t have a par meter but my best guess is under 100, as it’s in an area of the tank that gets very little direct light. I may try an iodine dip and see if that improves health at all.
