dying xenia

[mxpro32]

    i have had xenia in my tank for about six months and it has been growing and thriving, but recently it started shrinking back and now it is practically dead.  meanwhile all of my other corals are still thriving.  any ideas why it would start dying all of a sudden?

Have you recently moved it or changed its conditions (lighting, current, etc)? Are there any other other corals near it? Have you added any other corals recently? Have you been doing fewer or smaller water changes than usual? Do you know what your pH is at?

 

I've found that Xenia are very sensitive, but also very resilient. They are the first to show signs of stress, but one of the last to actually die.
