pom pom xenia
I have a small amount of pom pom xenia a friend of mine put in my tank to try to remove nitrates.
Well, it has been in my refugium for almost a month now. I added a few fish from the beach to try to lighten my tank up a bit seeing as the eel only comes out when the lights are off or she is hungry.
After I added the beach fish, the xenia began moving like grabbing like my friend's does in his reef aquarium.
I plan to take the fish back to the beach later today, will that maybe cause my xenia to stop pulsing? I hope not...also, what causes them to pulse? my friend told me it was the nitrates and the newer fish could have introduced more waste increasing nitrates and giving the xenia something to live off of...is this true? any help would be great thanks
