I wish you the best of luck. Please keep us updated on its progress.

I've never been able to keep xenias in my tank... Hopefully doing what Frag state should help out and possibly get it nice. If not in a few days before it dies (again hopefully that doesn't happen) I would take it bake to the LFS to see if they can get it to open up nicely and for store credit. I hate it when stuff dies.

Welcome to Frag Outpost jaydsl!
Most xenia is about the same degree of difficulty. But generally speaking, for some people it just grows like a weed while for others it will wither away and die every time.

The Xenia was taken back for store credit, it has gotten worse even at the store.I got a hammer coral with 2 heads i of them is also dying back. This is the same LFS i bought the Clown Tang that died the next day. I know its not my tank, i did all the required tests. A ll this is bad for me being in this hobby as i dont have much money with 3 kids and one on the way (my wife thinks its a waist of money) but she likes the overall tank. I really think that i wont be shopping at that store for a long while it recently changed owners and livestock dont look very healthy i wish i could convince my wife to not lose interest.

i have a frogspawn that had a crack but looked ok and lfs told me to bring it back or if it died i can have a credit but i said i will see what happens a piece broke off so i cut the tissue and so far i have 2 fspawns the little one is not the best shape but he said a frogspawn that splits and gets cut or tares 90% will die within 2-4 days well it has been about a month now i will put up some pics of the tank in a bit , i think i will cut back my xenia again next weekend

salazar - Sorry to hear about your string of bad luck. Are there any other reputable stores in your area? Hammers will require high levels of alk and calcium to thrive. If the heads are receding then I would keep my eye on the alk. Congrats on your wife having one on the way.

jaydsl - When you get the chance please start a thread and post some pics of your tank. Can't wait.
