    Does anyone have any of the long polyp xenia they want to part with? Not the short light pink but the rather long armed tan kind.

    I thought I saw some at the Fish Tank a few days ago. I have the thick stalk Xenia in my tank and my wife has the thin branching stuff. These are two totally different species.

    Yeah, I am looking for the thin branching stuff. Its longer and slim, not the short thick stalked clove polyp looking ends.

    Reefmann, I think I have what you're looking for. Will you be at the September meeting? Let me know and I can take/send a picture to confirm I have what you want.

    I spoke to John about it (because this xenia doesn't "pulse"). A little research shows that it might be Blue Cespitularia Xenia. That picture is about a week or two old after I tried to aquascape. I can try to take a better (or more) pictures later if you'd like.

    This is basically what I am looking for. I have 20 long on my system that I am wanting to convert to a xenia tank.

    Yeah.... I don't think I have the type of xenia that you're looking for. My offer for free xenia still stands though! I'll do my best to take more/better pictures later tonight though just in case.

    That is regular Xenia. I have Blue Cespitularia here is you wold like to see the difference. Sometimes Xenia doesn't pulse. Turn off all flow and then watch it, it will probably start pulsing.

    I have a little bit of this. I was picturing the really long stuff that is about 4 inches long

    If you have a large enough stalk you would like to get rid of I would gladly take it.

    I thought I had a different kind than what you were looking for? I have confirmed that it pulses, I just have it in a higher flow area atm.

    Will you be at the Benton meeting, or do you live anywhere near Cabot?
