The Xenia looks to be okay to me...Is is still pulsing or has it shriveled up? Based on the photo, it almost appears like it is splitting. If that is the case, no need to worry.

Nope its big and happy, no shriveling and my others corals look very happy (except my darn candy cane...)

Yep, just splitting and growing - nothing to be concerned about besides it taking over your tank :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:. You have some time before that happens lol
 

Figuring out the why: Has your primary reason(s) for keeping a saltwater aquarium changed over time?
