Hi reef2reef! Here’s my situation. I have a reefer 250 that’s been running really well with mixed corals. It has gsp, Xenia, mushrooms, rock anemones, zoas, sps, and pink nepthea. The Xenia and gsp are taking over. They’re covering everything at a pretty fast rate. What’s the best way to get rid of the Xenia?
thanks!
 
Grenade?
Serious note, removing the Rick with Xenia or GSP is the best answer..
You can try manual removal, bit it's rarely effective unless ALL the offending coral is removed
 
This is what it looks like.

How long have you had the xenia?
 
The gsp is growing fast too, but I’m more concerned about the Xenia at the moment. The gsp is is kind of cool.
 
How long have you had the xenia?
The Xenia came from a rock that was in my sump from my other tank. I’m not exactly sure how long it’s been in there, but I know it hasn’t been very long. It just exploded all of a sudden.
I would say less than a year.
 
I have the same exact issue. Any progress to report?
