    Xenia / Anthellia? dying?

    Well, The Xenia is now doing wonderful, pumped back up again and healthy as a horse so to speak. The torch coral lost one head and had no infection, the rest of the heads look fine and they are all eating well. My water still tests out great, and soon I will have some fish ready to put in from...

    Xenia / Anthellia? dying?

    Okay, so I have a 90 gallon reef and things seem to be doing well in this tank except for a couple of strange occurrences. I have in this tank what I thought to be a Xenia, however it does not have a "main stalk" all arms come up from an encrusting base on the rock that would be Anthellia...
