I feel like the polyp extension isn’t there or am I just buggin for no reason. It’s in a area with about 60-80 PAR and very low flow. I just moved it to this spot 2 days ago.

Up at an angle like that, there's really no way to see how it is actually layed out other than top down. It doesn't look super happy, but that's also JB'S UNLESS you get them in their perfect spot. They are notoriously finicky.

He is staying attached which in my opinion is a good sign but he had some decent PE the first 2 days today didn’t look so hot so but my phosphate went from.1-.14 from a dead snail so maybe that’s the culprit

PE? Are you talking about how it is laying out and expressing? Mushrooms don't have polyps to extend.

It will require the right amount of flow and lighting. Moving it it can take days or longer to settle in

My JB's were always happiest in about 50 par. No joke. They didn't like lights...
Yeah I got some really low light areas in the same flow range. I’ll experiment over the next month or two. Never knew they were so finicky thought under 80 par and low flow ur good thank you for the insight.
