Yes it will grow on the glass, but the growth depends on how clean your water is the dirtier it is the faster the xenia grows.

It will grow on the glass you should be happy if it isnt growing super fast it shows you have clean water

My Xenia is growing on the glass. They seem to spread upward towards the top of the tank.
Xenia likes nutrients and will grow real fast givin those conditions like said above.

Growing on the glass is nice because if you want to frag, it comes off really easy.

It depends if the Xenia starts to "walk" towards the glass, but it will usually attach in 2 or 3 days.
