I'm beginning to wonder if that thing IS xenia... it doesn't look like the photos I can find online. It had that "tall" profile when I bought it at AI (but they also sold me a "finger leather" that is a colt coral at the same time, so I wouldn't be surprised by mis-labelling). The brown zoos had that profile as well when purchased, and have maintained it. The smaller blueish ones (lower) don't seem to have the same tendency.

Still, we've also seen that "reaching" from one of the mushrooms from time to time, and the answer is probably "yes" to the more light question, although the thing is pretty bright, and more light isn't a practical option at the moment. We could move them up higher, but they don't look great perched up high on the LR. Health before beauty, though, right?

Thanks for the comment.
