How much to charge whom? Individuals or LFS?
My LFS gives me about half what he would sell for.
Depending on your area, you may not even be able to give some types of xenia away! LOL!
Sometimes , you can trade it for something you want! Have you found a local Reef club yet? _________  I Love My Sig By John Hawkins!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The price of a coral is dependant on the buyer. Find someone in your area who is looking for xenia and maybe trade with them.
Many people use xenia in their refugiums as well. | |

Los Angeles is loaded it Xenia, you might have a hard time selling it. Your local clubs trade it like it's candy FWIW, Tong's sure had a load the other day when I went by
