Does this look alright?

[SidCat]

I have recently set up a new nano tank that I have a few soft corals in. The live rock I bought for it had been in someone else's tank and I had a very short cycle if any at all.

One of the rocks had green mushrooms and cabbage coral already on it. The cabbage coral is starting to get lighter and I was wondering if someone could please let me know if its looking ok?

I tested my water last night:

Ammonia, Nitrite and Nitrate 0
SG 1.025
Phosphate 0 (yay!)
Calcium 320
Temp 80

The calcium is low and I will look into a supplement for it.

Looks fine to me! They are very hardy, and it's probably just adjusting to new conditions.

Don't worry too much about your Ca....320 is fine if you just have softies.

I agree it looks to be be ok. Maybe just a little stressed out from being moved around.

Thank you very much for your replies. I tested the water again this morning and had the same readings as above. The cabbage coral looks no lighter.

Since that picture it has gotten much bigger, but it is still really pale. Is almost white an ok colour? My wateris tested often and the results are comparable.
