I have a small Xenia in my nano and I have noticed something eating the smaller solitary colonies around the base of the main "stalk". Here's the tank specs and suspect lineup.
15g nano, 0 nitrates/other, 80w PC lights, 10 lbs lr, a few zoanthids and small shrooms.
the suspects are (ie, all thats in the tank)
1 inch occellaris
1 inch scott's damsel
1.5 inch purple basslet
sub-1 inch yellow watchman goby
one emerald crab (suspect #1)
a couple small blueleg hermit crabs and one halloween crab (acorn size or smaller)
a handful of small brittle stars
two turbo snails, one astrea, and two cerinth
one strombus conch (that stays on the bottom, well away from the Xenia at the top)
So what's munching on my Xenia? Or is it possible that the Xenia is relocating itself?
