![]() You can cut the xenia with a razor blade or utility knife as close to the rock as possible. Poke a toothpick through the base of the frag stalk and elastic band the toothpick to the rock where you want it. Do your cutting outside of the tank in a container with tank water, and make sure you swish the original xenia rock around very well. Any little piece that comes off will settle somewhere where you dont want it and start a new colony. Leave the tooth pick in for a week or so and when you go to remove it twist the toothpick first(because the xenia will likely have grown onto the toothpick as well) then gently pull it out. You may want to do the toothpick removal outside of the tank as well.
