Hi, welcome to R2R!

Need some details before we proceed.

How old is your tank?
What are current parameters?
Lighting?
How long have you had the nem and how was it purchased/acclimated?

Purchased locally or shipped?

My guess is that there's nothing to worry about. Doesn't hurt to cover all the bases though.

Give it time. Nems do all sorts of things. You'll know when it's really a problem. They start deteriorating.

Thank you! It’s mouth is closed now and it’s puffing back up

Mine look like chewed gum sometimes too. Being new it may even go and hide for a while.
