Day 2 with BTA???

Why is it white but seems super happy otherwise??? Is that stress from the shippping?? Or is this normal coloring?

Could be stress from shipping. Looks like its lost a bit of zooxanthellae but easily recoverable

it does look a little pale, likely from stress and shipping. It looks healthy otherwise

What do I do?? It seems so happy but just has white all over it?? It has attached and not moved in 2 days so I assume it's happy. It has extended itself and is flowing nicely just has white all over it will it recover on its own? Do I need to do something for it?

Small feedings can help, but I'd just leave it to settle in. It should come back fine

I feed my fish daily with mysis...it has been eating it as I noticed it closes while I'm feeding after it catches some shrimp....will that do.

Yes. BTAs get most of their energy from the light source. You can feed it or not feed it, either way it will recover fairly quickly ~1 month
