It looks like it might be getting ready to shed. They'll do this from time to time to kind of cleanse themselves of detritus, algae etc.

It is just natures way for toadstools to rid detritus, algae and anything else that is irritating the coral. In a few days the polyps will be extended again. If you want to lessen the likeliness of your toadstool doing this place it in an area of stronger current.
