help with xenia frags

[customanimalart]

I posted this in the frag/prop forum first, but so far, no help there so I am now here =) ......

I just bought 2 frags of xenia two days ago. One frag is a nice size and is pulsing normally. The other frag branch has 2 frags of xenia on it. Both are smaller than the other frag. One is the same type as the other (pink pulsing) and is pulsing as well. The other smaller frag is the silver pulsing variety. It hasn't shown the same responses as the others. it looks rather wilted with the occasional pulsing. It was doing much better yesterday and the day I acclimated it. It pulsed from the start, but not now. It is all wilted and sad looking.

Any thoughts on this? If this piece dies, will it kill the other healthy frags? How do I know if I need to remove it or if it will "bounce" back?

BTW...all params are in the required range. Temp is 80-81

From my experience with Xenia, it may or may not survive. I wouldn't worry too much about it killing the other ones. I had some nice xenia at 1 point that was just beautiful, and one day it just started wilting away. Oh, and I would just leave it to see how it does. You never know.

Alright. Thanks. I will leave it be. I was hoping not to have to do anything with it as the other smaller frag sits next to it on the same LR branch.
