The first picture shows some of the Xenia brood stock that we are growing in LeRoy's sps coral reef. You can see many of the colors that we are growing. These Xenia are cut each month to keep them from shading the sps corals.
This group of Xenia is changing form every month. This is the place that we glued many of the new Xenia that we started propagating several years ago. We wanted to see if the different colors of Xenia would keep their color if they were all grown on the same Aragocretetm arch. As the Xenia grew they did keep their colors, and we learned that all of different Xenia could grow together without hurting each other. As this group grows the polyps blend together into a multicolored tapestry.
As the Xenia spreads onto the racks we will be able place clean Reef Plugstm in the holes in racks, and they will soon be covered with new Xenia. Many of the Xenia that fell to the bottom of this filter have started to grow. We have put some Reef Plugstm next to these corals and soon we will be able to remove them with the Xenia that has grown on them.

Much of our Xenia that we are using for propagation now come from this filter.
