Default Something is snacking on my xenia...?

Hi, everybody.

Every single day my xenia seems to be missing more and more of its pulsing thingies. I am afraid somebody is eating it, but am unsure what is known to snack on xenia. My hermits seem to spend a lot of time with it and so does the arrow crab.

Tank inhabitants include:

true perc, royal gramma, firefish, some sort of blue and yellow damsel;

hermit crabs, an arrow crab, snails, a sea apple, gbt anemone, sebae anemone, tube anemone, bristle stars, bristle worms (I have some big ones, too), a red star fish, and many little white starfish.

Does anything on this list like the taste of xenia? Thanks for letting me know!

My bet is on the damsel, had one that was fine for a couple months then it started taking the heads off.

So I guess I just have to watch really closely and actually catch somebody eating it. I do not think it is the damsel only because he is the newest addition to the tank and it was happening before I got the damsel.

This is a lot harder and more complicated than freshwater, that is for sure!

Thats the big one you got from vic? Hopefully you can get it figured out. That was a beautiful piece. Speaking of getting things figured out, how are you doing with the pic thing. I just might have to take you up on that offer to come and see your tank
