xenia

So one of my xenia frags came off and got sucked into powerhead and completly shredded. i removed what was left out of powerhead. Water wasnt cloudy looked ok. Fed fish they fine. Everything else seems ok. Should i be worried about a crash and or a xenia outbreak??? I have a Nano waterbox 10...

I'm pretty sure my package could've survived being run over for how well it was secured. It was very obvious that they take great care with their livestock. I think the coral was either double or triple bagged then wrapped with newspaper and placed in an insulated box, then packaged. The xenia...

Anyone can ID what type of Xenia this is? It was pulsing in the greenhouse when I bought it and when I first got it in my tank. It's been there 2 weeks now and hasn't started to pulse again.

I got some Xenia about 3 days ago, and it’s pulsing moderately Bc it’s in decent flow, and it is opening up which is good, but I can’t help but notice a lot of the feathers are black? I’ve gotten some conflicting info on this, with people saying it’s a phase while some saying their Xenia’s...

Hello, My name is Scotty I'm a noob.. I've had reef tanks in the past. Pretty much before this thing called the internet. I'm getting back in to the hobby, I just set up a Red Sea Max 130D which a friend gave to me. I have removed the hood, remove the trim around the glass, and installed a...

Hello all, I had a FOREST of pulsing Xenia for a couple years until a month ago. I sold a frag and moved stuff around, some wood polyps, and cleaned up the tank and then they all died off in a matter of a week. I noticed this spider web looking stuff and wondered if it was something that could...

I am setting up a separated area for some pulsing xenia. A local guy on Craigslist is selling frags but I have seen multiple times that xenia cannot handle dipping. Would taking it off of the plug and not dipping it be good enough or am I asking for trouble?

I’m about to get some pulsing Xenia that’s loose. How the heck do I attach it to a plug or rock or whatever? Not sure about the size of the frag I’m getting.

So yesterday, I get home from work. I work at a rehab hospital as a nurse aide taking care of brain damaged patients and the hours are long (12 hours) so at the end of the day I come home looking forward to seeing my reef. I had recently (about 2 weeks ago) bought heteroxenia off live aquaria’s...

I've had my tank for 5 weeks now, and I've noticed something growing on my xenia. Can any tell what it is?

Let me just start by saying what you are about to see might be graphic to some and might cause nightmares/ptsd from others. Long neglected, but heavily fed, what was once a flourishing tropical reef in a box has now turned into...well what looks to be a mix between hades' underworld and a...

hey guys i just bought this xenia who was fragged right in front of me at the LFS about 6 hours ago. it’s been bending over like this for a while now and when i supported it with my fingers it’d stay upright for ~10minutes. was wondering if this is normal since it’s new/freshly fragged? wouldn’t...

So I am think of setting up a tank filled with all the coral that people class as invasive, things like gsp, Xenia and mushrooms. The sort of things that I don't want in my main reef tank. I currently have a cycled fluval 13.5 with a pair of clownfish and live rock, bare bottom. Been cycled a...

I have a question that keeps nagging me. I'm considering encouraging one or more of my corals to grow on the back glass and overflow, but I'm decidedly undecided. I want your opinions and experience. I may not follow your advice, but I might, maybe. The tank is not tall and one of my...

My Xenias where nice and blooming and today in the morning when the lights came on they did not open . So I turned on my pumps that i use during feeding time and one of them wanted to but did not ..... i did a parameter check and it looks like PH is way low . So i drove to my local pet shop and...

I've heard that some people go as far as to supplement iodine in their tanks to help their xenia flourish. I haven't been able to verify this theory (and believe me I've tried), but that seems to imply that xenia is a bio-accumulator of iodine. And if thats true then... Well, it probably...

I have what I believe is just your general Pom Pom Xenia. I’m just wondering if it is normal for Xenia to just grow in single heads. All the ones I’ve seen online have been one base white many heads. Thanks In advance

Hello, I am new to corals and I’ve been prepping my tank for 16 months. I wanted to start with Xenia and green star polyps. I know the polyps are weeds, but I really love the way they look. Anyway, I finally bought some Xenia three days ago and they’ve been placed in the tank last night. My...

Hi all, my xenia has been healthy, but tonight its puffed up from the body nothing has changed in the tank any ideas what its foing ot any experience? looks like its about to explode

I have one tank with lots of xenia growing all over that I have to regularly prune and another tank with no xenia. The tank with the xenia consistently has lower nitrates than the one without. It also seems to require much less maintenance. Is the xenia consuming the nutrients in my tank an they...

I have this Xenia (i think) that is growing out of control in my tank. I am trying to figure out what type of xenia it is so I can better figure out how to get rid of it or at least cut back some of it. I have posted a picture but this is like 2% of the total amount of it in my tank. It is...

Hi, I’ve had this Xenia for 2 weeks. It’s big and healthy but the longer stems are not opening. Is there something wrong or is this just they way it is? The ones close to the base open and pulse.

Looking to buy some easy corals preferably soft corals/ leathers/shrooms/zoas/gsp or looking to see what’s available around Pensacola! Hit me up!!
