Hey everybody
I added a toadstool coral to my tank yesterday and today it sort of bent over. I have heard of other soft corals doing this, so I'm assuming that there isn't a problem, but just in case, I'm asking.
Thanks for your advice.

I believe your referring to the stem of the toadstool?
if so then yes, since its just been added its getting used to the new water and more likely the new lighting.
should straighten up like normal within a couple days

Try an area of higher flow if the coral does not straighten up.

Hopefully it's fine. I just got one yesterday too and I can't see his stem either. He's just collapsed on the ground, but his head is open
