I was browsing around some stuff when I stumbled across Phyllodesmium rudmani, a nudibranch that mimics xenia, and eats it!
Just thought I'd bring a little awareness to this cool critter. Unfortunately they are definitely not readily available, I saw a few old listings. Im sure some of you could use this nudibranch

I like my Silver Red Sea Xenia. I don’t need Xenia eating slugs.
 
Haha awesome!

I have a patch of Xenia deep in my rock under the acro colonies i just cannot remove!
Have a dig at it every now an again with a razor blade and give free frags away to reefers with caution.
Almost picked up some xenia when I started, really glad I didn't though. Only xenia I want now is this beautiful red xenia, that apparently is not as invasive, still going on an island in my tank though!
