Trading in Xenia

[Jiddy]

Without being able to take the rock out of the tank, how can i get the Xenia that is attached to it off the rock? Can you cut it off or what?

Take a card (like acredit card) and use the corner of the card to pry around the base of the xenia after a little while of working at it it should start to peel righ toff the rock. It takes a little while if you have small stalks but with big stalks it goes really quick.

Hope this helps!

You can also cut it off with a razor blade or scissors if you don't have the patients to use the credit card. I use this method when I am giving it away. Here is a link with a video. It is about 3/4 of the way down the page. http://www.garf.org/fish3/xeniaclown.html

I just rip it off the rock. It grows right back. I dont think you have to be too careful.

You guys beat me to it. I was about to start this thread.

A friend has some xenia growing on his return tube and he said he would give it to me but it couldn't be moved without killing it.

Whoo Hoo for me!
