Hi Zee,
I can meet you in Newton on Friday or Framingham on Sat. Sending a PM.

 

[Zeefishies]

Newton on Friday would work ,
What time?
Early afternoon or so?

 

[coralfishreef]

2 frags left of the Giant Bali Xenia. I’ll be in Concord and Framingham this weekend if anyone wants to meet in either location.

1 frag left of the Giant Bali Xenia.

The last double frag of Giant Bali Xenia has the several small nubs showing additional stalks starting to grow. Last one.

Does this giant Xenia pulse?

 

[Zeefishies]

Does this giant Xenia pulse?

It does, really nice too, i got a frag from him,
Definitely a nice piece

 

[thrillreefer]

Ugh I was hoping it would be no! Now I want one

 

[coralfishreef]

Yes. It does pulse and has nice movement kind of like a torch. Very fun coral.

Mike C has a video of his tank before he took it down. There is a Giant Bali Xenia in the bottom right corner.

That is a sick softie tank! I’m trying to decide is this is different enough than my huge Cespitularia to justify it — although that one got a bit too invasive and was banished to my anemone/invasive tank…

 

[coralfishreef]

The difference is the movement and growth pattern. Cespitularia has middle base that can vary in shape, and spreads out like a vine which can be invasive. The Giant Bali Xenia has not mysteriously spread at all in my tanks like regular Xenia can do. It grows out from the base of the trunks and would grow and spread to rockwork if allowed. I kept mine on a frag rock on the sandbed.

The Giant Bali Xenia has a defined thick middle trunk and a single head/trunk of GBX looks somewhat like a short Dr Seuss truffula tree. As the GBX grows more trunks and “heads” the trunks and heads retain the same defined shape, and will look like what MikeC had and what I once had with the 10 heads/trunks.

I really like the Giant Bali Xenia. My next tank, lol, yes already planning, will have a Giant Bali Xenia, a pink nepthea, and the neon green Florida Caribbean devils hand. And possibly a yellow Fiji and green Japanese weeping or long polyp.

Here is a video of someone else’s tank with a single trunk/head of GBX and no flow.
