Xenias are a very popular coral in the reef aquarium community for several reasons. Xenias are a soft coral and they are a coral that is good for beginners who have never kept corals before. Xenia corals have no skeletal structure like L.P.S and S.P.S corals. Xenias are mainly photosynthetic and recieve the bulk of their nutrients from the lights that are on your aquarium. I do not go out of my way to feed xenias due to the fact that they are photosynthetic and make no effort to eat on their own. Xenias may do some filter feeding through the tissues in their bodies so if you do broadcast feedings for other corals then they could benefit from that. Xenias are a very non aggressive coral and do not display much aggression when it comes to coral warfare. Xenias are very fast growers if they like your aquarium and may encroach onto other corals territory. The prolific growth of Xenias is really the only downside I can think of when keeping them in my aquariums. In my experience xenias like a system that is on the higher side of a nutrient load. They tend to grow better in established aquariums where the water is a little dirtier. You can keep them in a newer aquarium but you just may not get the explosive growth that you would in an established one. Xenias can display a pulsing motion in lower flow areas of the aquarium and it adds a nice flowing movement to your system. They are very fun to watch. Xenias can propagate themselves utillizing a form of pedal laceration just like mushroom. If you have never kept xenias I urge you to give them a try. We have them available on our website at www.cmaquaticsky.com. If you have any questions please leave them in the comments below or send me a direct message at [email protected]. Untill next time, keep on reefing!
