Just got my hammer coral yesterday, and it's turning transparent (would show photo but you can't see it in a photo). I heard that it could mean its getting too much light so I turned the light down to 0% white & 40% blue (was 15% white & 85% blue). Is it getting too much light or too little, or is there another problem?

I was able to take a good video of it. I watched a couple videos on other hammer coral. It seems like this could be normal, can someone let me know?
