Neon toadstool not extending polyps

Had it for over 2 weeks now and 30mins after I put it my tank it was fully extending its polyps and was happy. It was good for a week but last few days it hasn't open up anymore. There were times when it was starting to but only to retract and some of the green tips even broke off.

Is this normal and it's just shedding or is something off? Other corals around it are doing fine.

It should be fine and likely just shedding. This can take a few days or longer if it is in low flow. (Toadstools, when acclimated, love heavy flow and shed much faster and less frequently in it)
