how to get rid of xenia

[Drock169]

Xenia doesnt always grow out of control. Given the right conditions it can overrun other corals. Best thing to do is just cut off pieces and attach them to LR rumble and trade them, they alway seem to be in demand.

I say copperband wont do a thing.. If you have sps tank then low low nutrient tank will kill em off.. They like high nutrients!!!

I don't know I've seen that stuff thrive and grow in sps tanks with next to no nutrients at all. Xenia's nice to look at but can turn into a plague real quick lol. Maybe take the rocks with it out frag them up and sell them.

You can peel it of the rocks and it still goes back even in a low nutrient sps tank.

Snappy is right I had a rock that was covered i peeled it off and its growing back its really hard to get it gone. Unless you have something that will keep it low trimmed.

well they like nutrients so I guess those sps tanks really were not low nutrient.
