Phixion Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 wowzers! is it true that xenia can grow out of control?.. whats the myths and truths? should i get one? They certainly can, but they can also all die suddenly without warning. Their spread is dependant on how you control them though. Keep them on a plug in the sand away from the glass or rock where they can attach to, and they won't spread much if any. Once on a rock or the glass, then they go to town multiplying and splitting. DeMartini, what camera do you use for your pictures if I may ask?? Link to comment
BigAl07 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 IS it BAD to let them multiply? Is there any harm to it? Whatever camera she uses ROCKS! She has some of the best pics I have seen yet!! Allen Link to comment
Kirin1 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 It's a Cannon Powershot SD550, someone asked her like 12 pages ago. DM, Do you use a Tripod for your Macro Shots? Link to comment
BigAl07 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I have a PS440 and it's not even CLOSE to the quality of hers... maybe she just has that MAGIC touch! whatever it is, it WORKS!! Allen:) Link to comment

Totally missed that, my apologies. My S1 IS should have similar quality then... As for xenia, it's not bad itself for it to multiply, but it can get onto rocks where it'll block the light to things like GPS and zoas, and it'll definitely compete rather agressively for space, as in choke others out. It doesn't wage chemical war though like other corals. Link to comment
BigAl07 Posted May 24, 2007 Share Posted May 24, 2007 I love mine but can't seem to get any quality CLOSE shots.... wonder what I am doing wrong! her pics are always perfect!! And so sharp and close!! Link to comment

Al, Your 440 is a 5Mega Pixel camera, the SD550 is a 7MP camera, so she's starting with a higher resoultion before re-sizing. The macro focus mode on the SD550 looke to be very good too. If she's not using a tripod, then the camera has some kinda wobble compensation in Macro mode. It's just a better camera. Link to comment
