hammons.david Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I would like to get some Xenia coral but are they hardy and will they hurt my trumpet coral? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makena95GT Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Super hardy. But spread like wildfire. Unless its in my tank.. where it just sits and never grows lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammons.david Posted December 16, 2014 Author Share Posted December 16, 2014 Do you have any clownfish that have the Xenia as their host? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makena95GT Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Nope. Ive only owned one clown and he never found a host before he met his demise by jumping out of the tank :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjohn Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Makena, maybe you keep your water too clean. Softies seem to like it a little on the dirty side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoas have finally been growing though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bpb Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 Selling Xenia to noobs by the bundle helped afford me my skimmer and powerheads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammons.david Posted December 18, 2014 Author Share Posted December 18, 2014 Makena, maybe you keep your water too clean. Softies seem to like it a little on the dirty side. I would agree, because ever since my skimmer broke (on a 68g with 3 fish) I have noticed my zoa's and GSP look more healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameronbherring Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 Same for me. Once I got my skimmer set up it started to look less healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 If you're worried about xenia being too invasive, there are less malignant varieties. The blue or purple Cespitularia look amazing and spread very slowly. Apologies to the hobby xenia vendors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
