    Great job documenting your steps

    The next time you try Xenia though try this. Drill some holes in a butter tub for moderate water flow. Throw some crushed coral or small LR rubble in the bottom of it. Cover the tub with bridal veil and secure it with a rubber band. Toss it in the tank.

    You'll have Xenia out the whazoo in no time at all.

    Do the same with the mushrooms, then you can glue the CC or rubble they're attached to whatever you want.
