id say, get someone to mount that xenia up for you either glue it, etc.. or try and stand it up somehow/lean it up.. it doesnt look too bad to me at all.... i think once its stood up and not buried in the sand it will start opening up nicely for you

The xenia looks fine, just prop it up and let it heal or if its detacked sew it onto a new rock. The only way to kill xenia is have a heater malfuntion and send 200 watts of current through the water so the xenia melts in front of your eyes or you have a coral beatuy that eats every head on it ( any any new ones that grow) (both things have happened to me)
