Does this mushroom need to be in the shade somewhere to show bright colors because it was bright pink when I got it and now seems to be losing color?

I notice with pink corals they need very intense light to remain pink. That looks like a normal colored Ricordea Florida and the colors seem fine. What lighting do you have?
 
How many t5ho and how large of a tank?

How did you acclimatize it?

Sadly the ricordea are kind of fragile as far as shrooms go. They quite often seem to die for no reason when added to a new tank.
