Xenia - Blue Cespitularia - NW Austin

[zcatzmeow]

Donating - Blue Cespitularia Xenia, mounted, and at least 1" x 1" in size.

Picture of colony (in higher light, for more blue move lower in tank)


Lucky for me, this xenia grows very well in my tank and I am able to frag it quite often. I currently have 2 mounted frags of the Blue ready to go.

What has worked for me: The blue xenia is in my 28g JBJ. The lighting is a 14k phoenix bulb with two actinics. To obtain the really, really blue color I place the frags at the bottom of the tank. They will grow anywhere but seems to get more pink the higher up they are in the tank. To encourage growth, a moderate flow right over it will speed things along. I do not feed the xenias directly but I feel that they have greatly benefited from live phyto.

i would like to sponsor a frag of this, altnhough now it's most assuredly too late to have it brought to the meeting.

Yep, too late, lol. I was going to send some up with AJ and totally forgot. If there is anyone that can transport, or if you want to pay shipping I'd be happy to have you as a sponsor
