bald xenia

You can try green star polyps or a Colt.

How old is your tank by the way?

 

well lets see...I bought and started biocube at Jul-23rd ish. So...a month and 2 week? and 2 day?

 

Saltwater Aquarium Fish for Marine Aquariums: Bluefin Damselfish

This blue fin damsel, they say are not reef compatible...could this be the reason why i have a bald xenia? And my goodness i didnt not know they get to be 5 inches, and need 50 gallon tank.

*thats the fish i have by the way, and clown*

 

I had a Tang once that loved to eat Xenia, So it could be the blue fin picking at it

J

 

Should i get rid of the damsel?

 

I've never heard of a Damsel eating soft coral. I would wait to catch him in the act before you condemn him

 

well i never had a time to catch him destroying the xenia. But I catch him from time to time nibbling on my clove polyps. Xenia is almost gone by the way,

 

My blue hermits ate my blue cloves. The blue cloves were freebie hitchhikers on my rock. wahhh

 

I have 2 clams thriving, and I also couldn't keep that damn stuff alive. Im glad it died though....just bought it in the beginning of thishobby before I knew any better

 

Sometimes they will melt and then months later they will pop-up out of no where. This has happened to me a few times in the past.
