coral of the week { xenia }

[Afishianado]

I think I have the Red Sea variety. Overall I like them alot . in my tank I have a number of really cool things but what draws my eye and everyone elses eye is that field of little pumping flowers, way cool. Extremely easy to keep for anyone. I have seen a 10 gallon microreef setup that was full of them, it was cool. On the downside though they do spread quickly so they require policing. I notice the tendency to migrate up. Some of it grew on my overflow box and mulitplied then kept going up until it was affecting the surface flow of the tank.

Got my frag from a cool guy down in Galveston.

Wanted it for two reasons. I like the way it looks when it pulses. I hate paying high prices at the LFS(want credit), and they NEVER have xenia in stock. The frag I have is doing very well, but not spreading yet. Hopefully it will take off soon.
