colt coral vs. xenia

[schadiest1]

if those 2 come in contact with one another, what would be the result?

I dont think anything would, mine come in contact and nothing happens, xenia would eventually be smothered if it couldnt migrate away.

I dont know that the xenia would be smothered, it grows like crazy so it might take over the colt, but i doubt it.

they aren't directly next to eachother, the top of the colt coral is only a couple inches from the base of the xenia.... just wondering if there would be a chemical reaction between the 2.

I saw your tank in you pic thread and I think its fine. They want sting each other but if the xenia ever can smother a smaller frag of colt it will. Happen to me several times smothers the light. Your colt is much larger than the xenia I think it ok.

dogstar,
do you have any experience in fragging the colt, or you bought it like that?
Thanks for your inputs too everyone.

Fraging a colt is very easy. Check out this site under http://www.garf.org/
under the frugal reefer tab check out the Soft Coral Production tab. I've done this many time with great luck.

Mine drops branches that I let attach on their own to small pebbles in my sand and then just super glue the pebble to a rock but now I have so much I just leave them. You can cut it if you want and glue them or wedge them some where too.
