Hello

I bought this hammer a few days ago but I recently noticed that 2 of 5 heads are white. Is this normal? Maybe new growth?

White almost all the time means bleached, probably from too much light or water params.
 
They are bleached, too much light call the zooxanthellae expelled, water too clean can cause to bleached too,

this has happend to me before, I want to say it’s bleached but it can also be something internal that’s killing it off. I would just put it in a slightly lower light spot
