Hey All

Over the past few weeks my clown has decided to call the Xenia home, quite often laying in it for hours at a time smile.gif grabbed a couple of pics this morning, such a great little fish to watch smile.gif

What do you mean by 'pulsing' blade?
its known as a Pulsating Xenia.when in the right position usually up high and with right lighting The polyps open and close in an pulsing or pumping motion quite pretty to see ,usully like a bit of flow ,grows like a weed ,,and also quite easy to frag ,,,

Yeah I get ya blade, yeah it does, it's in quite a high flow area so it's not so noticeable but when the flow stops at feeding time it's easy to see it almost reach out then draw in its individual arms.. And definitely one of the easiest corals to frag, a good pair of scissors works well! smile.gif

Id say it's the same variety you have Ray, I'm not sure if there are different varieties? I've only seen the one type smile.gif
