Xenia is a very sensitive little critter, anything can make it feel bad...lucky for us, they are also super hardy...so as long as it isnt melting you are ok.

Now to find out whats wrong.

a) How long has the xenia been in the tank?

b) If it is new, where in the tank is it? (close to lights...on sand etc...what kind of lights do you have?)

c) Supp levels...xenia loves iodine so make sure to keep the levels up.

d) Water flow...eh...I doubt thats the problem

e) Actually, xenia does sometimes go though stages of depression...mine do that every couple of weeks...its crazy, all of the xenia in my tank (even different species) will sometimes just shrivle up a for a while and come back.
