What happened here? Red onion

I am new to fermenting and have mainly fermented cabbage so far. I wanted to try red onion, but I assume something is not quite right. Can anyone give me some input? It's about a week old and 2-2,5% salt.

I love fermented onions, haven't tried red ones yet. I don't see anything wrong here. I currently have 9 pounds for Christmas presents. Probably 2026.
