It’s been about five or six days since I transferred this macroalgae from shipping when I got it it had a little bit of clear ends and orange coloration but now I don’t know if it returned and I don’t know what the next steps are to try to help it if anyone has an answer, please help

It looks that it may have become stressed in traffic, you are best to remove any translucent/white bits that you see, even after that the chances of it are still low
