Default WTD Lots of Green Star Polyps and Xenia
I have my 180 Gallon all set up with tonnes of live rock and a FOWLR set up.

Is there anyone that has lots and lots of green star polyps and xenias that they are looking to get shot of or sell? it would make a nice splash of colour to my tank as its pretty bland right now.

I dont want to get a small frag and then wait 10 years for it to grow in my tank to cover the rocks etc.

Thanks

If you can get the GSP off the rock you can have some. Also lots of xenia.

just a suggestion but why don't you save your money and just let your tank mature by itself. gsp and xenia grows like weed so get some and spread them around and they will grow given the right environment. If you can't make them grow, then something might not be right with the care of your tank. If they are growing well, then keep up the good work and watch them grow into your tank's rocks and walls. I've seen too many people try to make instant reef tanks and acquire too much livestock before learning how to care for them. BTW my experience is xenias need iodine supplement to grow well.

Is iodine detrimental to any of the other corals?

in moderation, all corals will be fine. to play safe, get a test kit. otherwise, dose sparingly and accordingly to the acceleration/decelaration of growth of your xenia/various macro algae that uses it as well.

part of the fun of this hobby is watching things grow into the tank.
IME - the less you move things around, the faster things acclimatize and grow quickly.
