I have a HOB skimmer and was moving it to clean the back glass. Stupid me then stopped to use the bathroom. I came back and the xenia had been sucked into the skimmer impeller. Quite a few of the "tentacles" have been chopped off now. :( What can I do to help it pull thru???

it will probably be fine, plus every little piece will probably make a new colony - be ready for invasion of the xenia!

That happened to me, but with a small powerhead. I have it everywhere now. I blame Diego, he gave it to me with no warning. j/k
