Xenia frags (Montreal)
 
I have Xenia frags to trade, drop me an email to let me know what you have in exchange.

Not interested in shipping, sorry !

I have 5 or 6 nice frags (3 to 4 inches tall).

True, but I saw something even sillier. Somebody in Edmonchuk was trying to sell some for $15.00/frag. I was thinking of going up there, and setting up a stand on some streeetcorner. :D :D :D :D :D

It's not really "bad" but it can grow like a weed and get everywhere...

It seems to me that giving someone Xenia is the quickest way to turn a friend into an enemy. :P

Haha, I saw a medium sized Aiptasia for $20 :shock: :roll: :lol:

I removed that statement from the post, as I did not mean "enemy". I don't consider the person who gave me Xenia an enemy. It is just that Xenia tends to be weedy, and selling frags seems funny, when you can usually get all you want for free. :shock:

Geez i think i might be the guy from Edmonchuk. Maybe not i was asking $10. I don't understand why that's so silly?? At $10 that's still half the price of what JL and Saltwater connection sell their Xenia frags for. You rarely see Xenia in any LFS' around here. Although last week i did see a large very large piece at big Al's for $200. Now that was silly...

It is just that Xenia seems to be the dandelion of the Reef World. Once it gets onto your live rock, you are stuck with it forever. If you can keep it isolated there is no problem. I don't see it at my LFS either. That is probably because you can get all you want and more for free. :D

The thing that is really funny is that offered some really nice frags of what is sometimes called "White Colt" or Cladiella sp. , which is an excellent low bushy coral that does not get weedy for the very reasonable price of $15.00, I got no responses. :( :(
