Does anybody out there have some xenia that they would be willing to get rid of? I'm looking to get some for one of my tanks, but I cannot justify paying what some of the local stores are asking for it when I know many people who simply throw it out. Please let me know!
 
Dude, are you sure you really want xenia? If your sure, I have some I can give ya. I've been trying to eradicate it from my tank for awhile, but there is still some in there. let me know.
 
I have a nice rock covered in xenia if you want. $25 ill post a pic if you'd like! Probably about 10"x6"

In my opinion/experience Xenia is a nuisance... Cool at first, then after a while it spreads almost as fast as aptasia. Very difficult to remove. If you need to have it dont pay for it. Save your cash and get a "donation."
 
Cyclotello, my savoir, you are the man. This guy has broght back what was a barren tank to something of a reef again. (He's also my brother-in-law) and a great guy. And he speaks the truth about the xenia. Don't pay for it, if you really want some I can give you some, and it grows like a weed so think about it, but it is an open offer and I'm not far, vermilion.
 
Haha yes I am quite familiar with how xenia can spread, I have had many dealings with it in the past. Im just looking to add some motion to one of my smaller tanks. I'm indifferent to the coral, but my family really likes the way it looks. I wasn't really lookin to pay for it, but I'd help out who ever helps me out later on with a frag of one of my nicer colonies. Landers96, if you have some im about 10 minutes away so that would be great!

I do appreciate everyones input and offers though.
 
The xenia I am talking about is the pulsing type...I think it's called red sea xenia. I still don't think it's worth paying for. I've thrown it out by the hand fulls! It's still growing on the back glass of my tank. Get pm me if you want some and we'll set it up
 
The store closest to me is charging about $40 for a little rock the pulsing kind. I could never pay for that.
 
I appreciate the offer, but I actually just got back from gettin some stuff from landers. Thank you for the offer, and thanks to Landers96 for the hook up!
 
Ha Ha, and tell Funkyman he was right about those flower anemones he gave me
a few years ago!! I don't curse him like he said I would but my local lfs appreaciates all the offspring i have given him the past few years!!!

Peace,
Tommy
 
They are cool at first, but as I have dealt with them over the years I can safely say that I will NEVER put another flower anemone in any one of my reefs. But I bet you that cash flow you get from the offspring of those anemones is nice. My dad and I used to take them to a store in Elyria for store credit. People go nuts for em', until they start to multiply....lol
