How Long Will Xenia Take To Pulse

[fishy55599]

just wondering how long it will take for pulsing xenia to pulse again after getting added to my tank.
they are open tho, also they are high up.

Im not to sure but I know that xenia is notorious for sulking.

Had this bookmarked: http/reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-02/ac/feature/index.php

Old, but as far as i know, none of the information has changed. In conclusion: no one knows

cheers for that link

hopefully once it has rooted to the rock it might pulse again as it should settle in

Some never does Fishy - is mine still looking dead?

yeah, keeps looking worse, i think it was just coz water leeked a lil bit, im hopefull for mushroom. i think i can see what you mean by green star polyps "purple mat" i thought it was coraline but i can now see the lump, hope its out soon.

i am hopefull they will pulse soon, their open but their not pulsing yet (probally setteling in) it was still pulsing in the acclimitise bowl. they should attach soon, but they do look great right now

they were pulsing last night, and this morning a bit. but i move their "foot" hoping that it wil help the root better, they have close. hopefully they will be out again later

Xenia sulks like mad. Every time you disturb it, adjust the flow etc it will close up and could be some time before it pulses. Like previously said it might not pulse at all.

Just position where you'd like it (in an area of high flow and light) and leave it be.

well its opened again and pulses abit.
seffie, yours completely died


hopefully the GSP show them selves soon
