Hi ,
On the course of months my xenia crawled to the top point of my tank meeting the hydnophora and starting to touch .
What can i expect ? Do i need to worry . Will there be some warfare ?
Should i remove the xenia ?

Everything I've read says hydnophora pack nasty sting. I would be concerned for the zenia,they do not sting as far as I know.
funny thing ive read the same , but in the months that i do have this coral ive never seen any stingers . But nothing came close until now , i would not mind losing the xenia tbh so ill leave it and see what will happen .

That's funny. I was going to mention if it does take out the zenia no great loss but some people love their zenai. Lol

If it would be more compact then i do like the flow , but it has a strange way of growing here , more like a tree shape that i do not like , and also it moved from bottom to top ... i do not like it to move xd also under my spectrum the true color's isnt showing much if it had any to start with .
