So I got the mushroom for $10 at LFS and this is how it looked in the store. It’s been in my tank for about 3 days and seems like a little more red has shown up but hard to tell honestly. Is this coral on the way out? Is it supposed to be this white?

What should I watch for to know if a mushroom is dying? Like how would I know if it’s just bleached versus dying
Curled up. Releasing from it chosen spot (this could be other reasons too) spilling its internals out. Shriveling.
