I was wondering if anyone had any experience with one of these. I really like to look of them and can NOT find them anywhere! If anyone is interested in selling frags I will be happy to buy!

I have one, the pulsing is only apparent during water changes because the water is super still and not nearly as dramatic as a Xenia. I don't have enough to frag yet sadly otherwise I would just give you a frag. Mine has green polyps and light purple flesh.

Where did you originally purchase it? If you don't mind me asking.

A place called "the reef farm" it's a local aquaculture facility and they run a store 3 days a week.

I don't think they ship, except to stores obviously but if you catch Grace on the phone she will talk your ear off and maybe be nice and ship something.
