carnation coral and pulsing xenia

[Madreefer]

Myself and a couple of other reefers have tried a carnation coral and failed. Has anyone else had good results trying to keep this coral alive for over 6 months? If so, any tips?

Its a Dendronephthya. More feeding, less light.

I have never had one... but from what I have seen/read... most people who are successful are running non-photosynthetic tanks.

i put pulsing xenia into my fluval edge about a month ago, it grows like crazy! the height has already reached the top of the glass

Is that the piece from my tank?? If so, I'm glad it's growing well! I'll be ready to cut down the xenia forest again in a month! I can't believe how fast it grows!
