xenia taking over the world

At least the world they live in. I put in one tiny
pulsating xenia 10 months ago and now they're all over the
place, even growing on the glass. When I try to pull them
out, they turn into a sci-fi substance you'd expect to see
inside a monster parading as a human. A bit far fetched,
but they are seriously slimy and probably releasing more
potential xenia when I pull. Is there any solution or is it
best to pull out the rocks and scrub them off. That's quite
a few rocks by now.

Where are you located ? I would gladly take some of this coral from you.
Other choices would be eBay.com - but with local pickup only, they do not ship well.

I'm in central Pa. I'd like to trade it for less aggressive
coral. I could ask the local shop, I suppose.

I would not say Xenia is aggressive coral...
It is fast growing, but it is manageable.
Just position Xenia on top of the rockwork.
They have tendency to grow up, not down.
So if you position them on the top of the
"mountain" they should not spread as much.
Then, from time to time you could cut the
biggest branch, put in the bowl of water
with small pebble for a couple of days and it
will attach forming a nice selling/trade piece.

Just curious, where's central Pa?

I have a feeling they are referring to the central portion of
Pennsylvania, just to give others a ball park idea where they are
located. I routinely just give South Central Alabama or L.A. as my
location on other forums.......and the L A does not stand for Los
Angles (sp?) either its Lower Alabama, the redneck riviera ;-)

The original frugal ponder ! Koi-ahoi mates....

I found a free geography programme that I downloaded a few days ago and
I scored around 30% on the American states Countries of Africa is
another of my downfalls.
The programme, called Seterra, is here if anyone is interested
http://www.wartoft.nu/software/seterra/
It's quite safe - I frequent a freeware newsgroup.

Right next to NEPA (North East PA) Where I'm from...

Don't know the exact counties but it's the center part of the state

I've got some I'd love to trade out too. I'm in the North Bay. (snicker.)

45 minutes N. of San Francisco.

-K

A state would be fine, I'm sure I will never learn the counties as well
