![]() i was on holidays for a few weeks and when i got back my xenia wasnt doing so hot. it was the size of a football (on a single rock) before i left and now its shrivelled right up to the size of a golf ball. All my other corals seem to be doing ok, i did a large w/c after i got home and that seemed to liven up the gsp which was a little lethargic but the xenia is about to kick it- any ideas?

![]() no carbon- those are pretty hardy, next to a weed arent they? why are my other corals doing fine then?

![]() They are hardy, but sometimes they seem more sensitive to certain things. When I treated my tank for cyano, my xenia died in a HURRY. All the other corals were fine. Some people think they show symptoms of bad health when something is amok....

![]() Mine really doesn't like temps above 80. If it goes even to 81 the xenia shrivel up for a few days... but maybe there all a bit different

![]() could certainly be the temp- with this nice weather my tank has been going between 84-88 degrees when it normally is set at 80

![]() Neil,
If you do need another xenia, let me know. I can give you one that is a fair size, maybe not as big as a football but quite big. Mine has exploded in my tank and wouldn't mind getting rid if some. So if you need any you would really be helping me out. |
