With my mushroom the top half seems translucent?
Have had it in the same spot for the 2 months I’ve had it .
Parameters as of Friday night I test every 2 days .
Salinity 1.025
Nitrates 5
Phos 0 ( this could be off as I have some areas of GHA)
Calcium 420
Mag 1230
It in a 32 biocube stock led lights .

What test kits are you using? How long has it been like that? Even though it's been 2 months it can just be getting acclimated. And now you are seeing how it's reacting. This is why you should leave a coral for a couple of weeks (at least 3 minimum) so you can see if it like where it is. With this I'd assume it might want more light. Is it shrinking too or is it just translucent? Was it like this when you got it?
