reefguru21 Posted May 19, 2002 Share Posted May 19, 2002 I have a ? for the xenia people out there. Can Xenia harm other corals? Mine has started to to crowd the tank and I didn't know if there have the possiblitiy of harming the other corals in the tank. MAN THIS STUFF GROWS FAST!! Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 There is a risk of it overruning some corals, though I believe xenia don't sting other corals, so the coral it is near usually fights it off. Link to comment
printerdown01 Posted May 20, 2002 Share Posted May 20, 2002 Very true... It has been reported that xenia can cause problems if it comes in contact with some SPS spp. However, in terms of over running LPS or softies, there is little to no chance. Xenia will however block out light as it over crowds softies... So if they are light intensive they can be starved of light. LPS will generally sting your xenia if it gets too close. Link to comment
