Pulsing Xenia not pulsing

[gmerek2]

My Xenia is angry. All other corals flourishing. It's all sucked in and hasn't come out for about 6 days. It did great for the first couple weeks. So I did a little google research and here is what reef central said....but we are better. 1)person said water is too clean. I don't think that is the case since my nitrates are at 10ppm. Last week they were At 20 so it's possible. 2) person said they dosed iodine to save theirs. I don't have testing kits for iodine so I just dumped in reccomended amount last night. Ill let you know if it works. I have decent flow. Any other suggestions?

I have had Xenia wax and wane over the years with no signs of any other problems...

So unfortunantly I can not help but say it just ma not like your tank right now and will either wilt away or be really happy in a few days...

wax and wane is a good way to describe Xenia. I've seen it to exactly that in numerous tanks over the years. It tends to like all light types, medium to low flow, likes to eat planktonic food, can do well in 40-100ppm nitrate.
