Soft corals question

What is the best way to keep Xenia corals happy?

Keep them wet. That's just about all they need :)

Seriously though, you're asking about one of the easiest corals in the hobby to grow, they typically do just fine, even in tanks where other corals won't do well. Are you having a problem keeping Xenia that you have now, or are you looking to get some?

I have 4 xenias in my tank and they seem happy. They have grown, and two are very small because the colonies spread. I am just wondering what other people do to keep xenias happy. They only thing I do is water changes every once in a while. I have no fish, only corals and one hermit crab. The tank doesn’t require too much work.

I mean, they don't require much to be happy. Some reefers honestly don't like Xenia because it grows so well it can take over a whole tank, beating out other corals for space. If your Xenia is growing, then you're probably doing just fine.
