xenia forest

[thingfishdave]

I have tons of pink pulsating xenia that I need to thin out. What is the best way to remove them? Just pull them off with tweezers? Is it ok to cut the "strings" that attach some of them to others?
Thanks!

I don't know how to frag it, but I wish I could get some in my LFS's at a decent price. I'm in the market, as it were, (pirate moment!!) and my store only has these tiny frags for 30 bucks. Not really worth it, IMO, but whatcha gonna do...

JUst cut neer the base, and rubber band the frag to a rock. The little stub you cut it from will grow back eventualy.

glue wont hold. xenia will just slime it off.

I just put some rubble on/next to it. Xenia grows up and will attach to the piece of rubble and just remove it in one piece. That's what I do anyways -- cover my forest with rubble.. week later pull out my rubble. No real easy way to frag it otherwise as it's so slimy.

Xenia will climb on any rock you place near it...they frag themselves.
