They will if you dont feed them. Try again feeding them mysis, if not get some flake or pellet foods.

Gosh, I can't imagine anything eating stinky xenia. My sexys eat pellets.

My sexies eat Omega Shirmp Pellets and they go crazy for them (actually everyone in the tank does). However, since I have got the sexies my pulsing xenia and my blue anthelia have just withered away. All the other coral in my tank, including my zoas, look great and are growing. I think my sexies must have been picking on the xenia. Oh well, I like them better anyway.

They need to be spot fed everyday or they will start going after soft corals. Just one pellet a day will do it.
