Let $E$ be an elliptic curve over an imaginary quadratic field $K$, and $p$ be an odd prime such that the residual representation $E[p]$ is reducible. The $\mu$-invariant of the fine Selmer group of $E$ over the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$ is studied. We do not impose the Heegner hypothesis on $E$, thus allowing certain primes of bad reduction to decompose infinitely in the anticyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension. It is shown that the fine $\mu$-invariant vanishes if certain explicit conditions are satisfied. Further, a partial converse is proven.
