Just got it last night aclimated for an hour and this morning its spitting up brown stuff and mouth slightly open and tips slightly deflated just wanted to hear what the pros would do. I know they take a while to acclimate and not to feed until its settled in for a couple weeks just worried about the mouth

brown stuff is probably zooxanthellae.( it's acclimating to the new lights)if it starts to deflate alot and spit out it's insides and lose it's color you may be in trouble. what you describe is typical bta traits when introduced. when i look at it in the pics it looks like it needs more light and flow. more info would be greatly helpful water param, lighting and flow
