So I’ve had a amazing toadstool coral for about a month now and it’s been doing great but around 3 days ago it closed up and fored this brown film on specif parts of it. Just today the waxy brown fill is gone leaving behind white patches. The toadstool is in a very good flow area (I like to see movement in my tank) and all my other corals are doing great. I’m really worried and don’t know what to do.

Frist phot is from yesterday second is from today

Pretty sure they will shed their outer-membrane (for lack of a better term) every once in a while. This is normal and if this is the case it should look fine after it has completed the process. I know they tend to look terrible during this time too..I wouldn't worry too much!

Just google "toadstool coral shedding" and it should provide you with some more in-depth information.
