This is night 2 for my 1st coral ever, a mushroom. I've read up on them and the slight shriveling has been going on since the 1st night. Is this shriveling just the mushroom acclimating to my tank conditions or do I have a problem? If so what should I do besides water changes?

All my levels ph, Ca, nh3+nh4, no2, salinity appear fine number wise. I only have 100w of 6500k and actinic blue lighting across 36 inches so I put them on the top, about 5 - 6 inches from the light.

Mushrooms tend to shrivle up on occasion for no apparent reason, this shouldnt be a problem

Yep, I agree with Mike, especially since yours are new. Mushrooms are nearly indestructable, and after a while, you may wish they didn't grow so fast ;) Make sure you give it plenty of room to grow, as I promise you it will.
